To elaborate:
One egg, a glass of OJ, and some cottage cheese for breakfast.
Some pasta in olive oil or butter with fresh garlic and a glass of V8 for lunch.
A chicken breast with rosemary and thyme plus some salad for dinner. Maybe a slice of bread.
Similar eating all week. Total cost: about $20, which is just under $3 per day.
To be fair, this was a few years ago.
Oh, and my splurge? A box of Kraft Mac and Cheese, usually on Thursday. Bonus: lots of carbs and protein.
With coupons and BOGOs and sales, it isn’t that hard. Won’t be having lobster like that guy in CA, but you sure wouldn’t starve.
Mmmmm...pasta, olive oil and garlic.
