Title: $2.00 meals! (US Dollars)
Post by: jimjom on February 09, 2020, 12:18:16 AM

Here's a little something I made up.

Salami sammies on 60 cent day old bread. Picked this all up at Walmart. Pickles, mustard, American cheese, all Walmart brand. Then some Walmart seasoned fries and the most expensive ingredient-sriracha!

And tomorrow's breakfast- hot dog buns with pb&j and some Hershey's syrup because I skate an AAA midget and then D2 college game ) need calories and lots...humble brag on food and hockey( post your $2.00 meals in this thread! Bone appetite! Bonjour

I've got a bunch of poverty meal staples I used in really lean times. Mostly combining a couple items you can buy at Dollar Tree.

im going to caution against that. fries are good and get a free pass but im not down with whatever the 'meat' is. dump the sports drink and get a beer.

So what to do when you have too many hot dog buns? Make a $2.00 meal! This one is more like $.50. It's value packed and protein packed— a power bomb of flavor and health!

I've been experimenting with soup lately.

Kick up your half of a block of ramen with some pork rinds! The ramen was 20 cents and I get the pork rinds at the Dollar Tree when they're about to expire and are $.50. So this meal is less than a buck.

The more rich bisque like soup you see is Progresso chicken enchilada soup kicked up with more rinds (BRIM's brand) and some phony cheese-its from Dollar Tree. The soup is a bit lavish at $1.59 from Walmart but they are $2.29 a can at the local grocery monopoly (Giant Eagle) so the soup is the most expensive menu item.

should get you about 4 meals and cost around $20

saute chopped onion and garlic
add 1 tablespoon cinnamon and cumin, 2x cans or boxes of lentil soup, 1 28 oz can crushed tomatoes, 1 can garbanzos
cook 20+ minutes then add handful of raisins
cook 5 minutes then squeeze in a lime and serve
garnish with yogurt and bread if you feel like it

you can really stretch it if you serve it over rice or cooked potatoes
