No excuse to eat out (Includes easy recipes)

After being married for 2 years and living on 2-part time jobs, we are forced to learn how to eat cheaply but healthy and delicious.
Here are some tips to help you when you are too busy to cook.
1. Never eat out because you are busy.
It is a common thing we all do. After a long day of work, you just don’t feel like cooking.
However, there are some easy things you can do to achieve healthy delicious meals with little effort.
Lets use my dinner from last night as an example:
My husband and I couldn’t get home until 6:30pm and I knew neither of us would be up for cooking. So I went our price club to pick up:
- 1/4 lb. of London broil cold cuts ($3.01)
- 1/4 lb. of smoked turkey ($1.70) and
- 1/4lb. of Cheddar cheese ($ 1.78)
- a can of sweet corn ($0.89)
- a head of lettuce ( $ 1)
- a loaf of French bread ($2)
Right next door to the discount club is a grocery store, so I walked there to pick up
In addition, I knew I had carrots and celery at home.
Recipes:
When we got home. I popped open the corn and put it in to a pot with 6 cups of water and brought it up to boil. When boiling I added half of a chicken broth cube and stirred in an egg.
For the veggies, I chopped the carrots, celery, lettuce and mixed it with 2 tbsp of soy sauce, 2 tbsp of Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp of hot chilli paste, and 1 tbsp of sesame oil. I then mixed and tossed.
I sliced the bread and had the cold cuts ready to go in no time.
The meal was served in within 10 minutes of arriving at home and we had salad, soup and sandwiches. In addition, there were lots of left overs for the next day’s lunch. The total cost was $10.38 for two and you still have leftovers.
2. Don’t buy pre-cooked packaged frozen dinners.
Most frozen dinners are too high in sodium, sugar fat, and crap. In addition, they often takes up to 10 minutes to prepare and are terribly unsatisfying. They are not cheap. Most tolerable frozen dinners cost between 3-7 dollars.
The alternative is frozen vegetables. You can buy stir fry vegetables, Oriental mix vegetables and many other varieties. They are unseasoned, but ready to go in the pan.
3. Don’t buy grocery story deli section prepared dinners.
Those products are often over priced. Using my grocery store as an example, 4 pieces of fried chicken cost $6.99. That is quite expensive. Especially, these foods are prepared early and sit on top of the shelf for hours. They are not fresh.
