Any anons want to share money saving meal tips? I recently started making batches of chicken noodle soup that can serve 10 and freezing the leftovers. It’s a great source of protein and vitamins from the veggies. I’ve been buying in bulk and the average cost of each meal is less than a cup of ramen. I’ve only eaten chicken noodle soup for the past three weeks and I haven’t gotten tired of it yet. I’ve even tried different ways of consuming >Soup >Popsicles >Shakes
Any anons know other good cheap meals to make that are high in protein/vitamins?
Beans and rice in bulk. You're on the right track with the soups. Drink water instead of soft drinks. Reuse teabags instead of coffee.

Brown rice, frozen bulk broccoli, bulk chicken or fish, 5 dozen eggs, multivitamins. should be the basis of your diet. you'll get fit naturally and save lots of money. highly recommend black beans as well.

I'm a Any Forumsizen who spends an average of $40 on food a week. Rules are simple. >1. Either get a club membership (Sam's Club, CostCo) or use your SSN to get into a restaurant wholesale store >2. Things you buy fall into three categories; bulk (for volume - broccoli, rice, beans) protein (self explanatory) and taste (onions, hot sauce, garlic powder) >3. You should be buying taste ingredients monthly, bulk ingredients biweekly, and protein weekly That's it. That's all there is to it. Weeks where you end up cleaning out your pantry and you have to buy everything you might spend ~$110, but that's fine, because the next week you know you'll be spending $20 for four pounds of meat and that's it. Buy what you'll eat and eat what you'll buy. Your frozen chicken noodle soup looks disgusting to me, but if it works for you then more power to you. >finally, checked

a chicken noodle soup popsicle on a hot day sounds good
Xavier Ross
Is there noodles in the popsicle?

>reuse teabags I reused my teabag on your mom last night.

Another Any Forums bro here. Add in oats, pasta and potatos. Also for protein go for eggs and chicken breast as your meat choice. Drink lots of milk if you aren't a nigger
What does bulk chicken look like? Buying while chickens and deboning? Or a giant bag of frozen tenders?
Benjamin Green
You guys could suck each other off and swallow to recycle protein.

like chicken breasts. Before covid it was under 99 cents a pound. Now it's about $2.50 or so, but still the cheapest meat you can get besides sausage (depending on price, sausage can be a good deal as well).

This but unironically

At my store chicken breast is 4 dollars a pound. Maybe 3.50 if going for the cheapest option. Maybe I'm looking at the wrong stores. Are you buying frozen or fresh?
Eli Morris
I go to Aldi's and Walmart and I think a place called Food Lion. All cheap shitholes. I didn't used to. But it's usually frozen. If you have a membership to a store that allows you to buy in bulk, you'll have more savings. I'd say buy a freezer but your goal is to save money.
Jaxson Watson
Yeah I have an extra freezer with some empty space so yeah I should go for it. I'd just be afraid I'd be caught a few years from now wondering why I let all that frozen chicken go to waste when I buy fresh every week. I guess I just gotta retrain my brain to reach into the freezer.
Gabriel Kelly
I believe your goal right now should generally be prepping for continually rising food prices. I can't as much as I'd like, but I converted my linen closet to store probably a hundred pounds of various pasta, rice, beans, and some calorie dense canned goods. freezer is full of chicken and sausage, and usually have some chicken thawed out in the fridge i intend to cook quickly.
Jacob Miller
user you shouldn't freeze it, make aspic out of it.
