I'd want to eat more morning farms stuff or boca products, but even that at 4.00 for what equates to a meal or two is expensive.
Super super tight budget. We're moving in just over a month and its really killing us, two people a lizard & a cat on one person's paycheck is brutal.
I love indian food, we've been eating tandoori flavored turkey burgers with lentils several times this week, except when i found some leftover coconut milk and made a potato curry to go with it. That was different and good.
I can't stand hamburger helper at this point, its all the ex ever ate. I'm just saying how stupid this country is because cheap food is bad food, and good food is astronomic, no wonder everyone is obese and no one eats their vegetables :(

I miss just throwing things together. I miss cheap food, I miss not having to weigh count measure and analyze everything I eat. I just don't know what to do. I'm at my wit's end.

Look up recipes for coq au vin and chicken marsala. It need not be complex. Experiment with different herbs, if you have them. A typical quick meal for us is chicken with wine, brown rice, and steamed/roasted veggie of the day ( ... )

maybe I can experiment with various purrees, soups and things in the winter. I'm really horrible at soups though. :/

I just shopped for a traditional TX bbq -- brisket, ingredients for some starchy sides, and a whole lot of veggies. I was surprised that the entire party for 10 people only cost $100 -- veggies can be cheap ( ... )

- Dijon mustard and onions
- Worcestershire sauce and onions
- Cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves when roasting
Pork is a "sweet" meat; it goes well with anything that brings out its sweetness. Sweet potatoes, carrots, other sweeter veggies - those all bring out its best side. Savory dishes with pork are harder to pull off; save those for chicken.
