What's ironic is that working people are often the ones who have to clip coupons, look for bargains and cook from scratch from raw ingredients while the food stamp crowd get to fill up their carts with abandon and no regard to price whatsoever. They also tend to get processed pre-cooked foods that only have to get heated up in the microwave so it doesn't cut into their TV time.

It is rewarding though to cook from scratch. I can make an entire turkey last all week along with a bag of carrots, onions, garlic, celery and maybe a few sweet potatoes.

Whole grain rice with red beans. Affordable and healthy. Add a green veggie and a glass of water and the meal is nearly complete.
