Day 7
Mac and cheese with broccoli - 600 cals $1.89
Bp and banana sandwiches - 885 cals $.85
Ravioli - 440 cals $.89
Black beans and rice - 440 cals $.67
I had to come in below my 37 cent per diem amount of $6.58 and I best it by $2.28. Mission accomplished!
2,365 calories. I discovered beans and rice way too late in the game. It doesn't leave you as sluggish as the other dishes and it's incredibly cheap. I can see why it's eatin by the poor all over the world. Also according to the Internet (it never lies) it contains all of the essential amino acids that make up a full protein. Who knows, but it's also tasty!
Throw in some veggies and chicken livers and you've got a complete meal!
