Cheap and healthy food

[Anonymous No.19864522]

How do I meet my caloric needs while eating cheaply and (relatively) healthily? I've heard of the "chicken, rice and broccoli" diet but assuming that isn't a meme you'd need to eat a fuck ton of the stuff to get even just 1500kcal a day.

I only have a fridge and microwave, but that means I can still do frozen and fresh fruits, veggies, and stuff like frozen grilled chicken. Since I have no way to cook rice or pasta, I was thinking about going which whole grain or rye bread and either oatmeal or muesli for carbs since veggies aren't too calorie dense. Otherwise peanut butter, nuts, seeds and maybe some dairy could help with fat and protein while not adding any non-naturally occurring sugar. Aside from milk, just waster to drink really. I don't think I'm missing anything (though maybe a multivitamin could be a good addition?) but I still feel like it'll be hard to eat enough every day and I'm already skeleton mode. How do you guys do it?

You can buy bags of frozen, cooked rice for cheap. Or just go to shartmart and get a rice cooker for $15. I got one in college and used it in my dorm room to cook everything.
When I got more money I bought a nice rice cooker.

potatoes and rice are way different recommendations. white rice is basically nothing except carbs. potatoes at least have potassium and fiber in the skin.

multivitamins don't do shit unless you're eating only a single food source like an African. they can actually be harmful if you already are getting enough vitamins and then you pile more on.

if you want to gain weight buy a cheap gainer supplement from the workout section of the supermarket and mix it in milk and gulp it down. if you really want to gain weight on a poverty diet buy pork shoulder. it's extremely fatty. get a toaster oven and you can bake small portions of meat. it's going to be difficult to eat whole foods using only a microwave. I mean, it can be done but it's going to be super unpleasant.

If you're going to stand by only using a microwave then get the biggest microvable bowl you can possibly fit inside and make soup. Boil chicken or fatty pork in water with vegetables for 45 mins.

It seems like bread is more calorie dense than rice, and my freezer is full so I may stick with this. Is there something else I'm missing though? Why is it that rice is so often recommended as a staple food?

Potatoes could be fine but I can't boil them.
>>19864557
I've been recommended whey protein but it seems awfully expensive and I'm convinced that there has to be a catch to the stuff. Trying to get a definitive answer on whether multivitamins are safe for everyday use or if I'd end up going overboard on something but I still haven't been able to determine that yet, I do wish I had a place to prepare and cook food.

Shit dude, get a fucking electric cook top then, they are pretty cheap and you can get pretty fancy induction stuff now (with like temp hold and stuff). Then get a compatible skillet and pot. Now you can basically cook anything.

Or if you can't, get a instapot and use it to cook stews, rice, and sear stuff. Or better yet, replace the microwave with a combo microwave that does oven & airfry shit.

I've cooked potatoes in the microwave, try cutting them up, throwing into a serving-size bowl with some water (just half a cup for steam) and covering tightly with damp paper towel or linen cloth. With rice it's a bit more complicated (more water and it's much better to soak it first), but doable. Just be careful with the heat anon

The *only* definition of healthy that is actually meaningful assuming you can meet your macros is having a varied diet. That's why threads like these that focus on reducing your diet down to a few specific foods completely miss the point.

Also try making your own broths with bones and taking marrow etc. Its good stuff and marrow/organs are miles better than any multivitamin crap. Seriously, 99% of supplements are useless rubbish.
And just avoid anything with seed oils in it. Its all processed garbage anyway and its the quickest way to just check if whatever you're buying is okay to eat.

Make sure you're not making some basic mistakes:

1. Buy your groceries from where you can get them the cheapest.

2. Buy frozen broccoli, bot fresh. They will have retained more of their original nutritional value and there is no need for cleaning pruning them.

3. Buy either chicken thighs or whole chickens (frozen or fresh, whichever is cheapest). Breasts have very little fat content, making them taste much less, easier to overcook for someone not used to cooking, and lower in calories overall.

4. Always compare prices of brands/size options per unit, not per pack. As in $/lb or €/g or $/fl.oz. or €/cl etc. You might have to do some simple math while in the store, but it's literally just dividing price by amount/volume. If you suck at arithmetic, just use your phone's calculator and write down each option's comparative cost.

5. See 4, and remember that buying in bulk is OFTEN better value for staples like rice, fats, frozen goods. This means: the bigger the amount, the lower the comparable cost, usually.

If you are not making any mistakes contrary to these guidelines, then see if spinach, brussel sprouts, or kale is cheaper than broccoli where you live. That may be the case. Other than that, if things are expensive anyways, start buying non-perishables of beans, onion, rice, the cheapest non-detrimental fat you can find, eggs(pricing?) And whatever fruit is on a great deal the days you shop and ignore the chicken option.

frozen meats are cheaper. especially chicken. you can get a good deal on frozen wings or drumsticks. defrost, season, bake. easy. tired of chicken? ground beef is cheapest beef you can get. also look into organ meats. in this economy anything under $6/lb is a good deal. adjust for your local currency.

my entitled boomer parents buy proteins for more than that.

you should have a bookmark folder of local grocery ads which update each wednesday.

i don't eat 100% protein even though i know i should. but fruits and mac/cheese help round things out. it's filler, yes, but will have to do for now.

yeah that can be the case too. cheapest chicken parts are around $1.50-2/lb....decade ago it was $1.29/lb...anyway, a whole chicken is now too expensive, around $15-20. i used to get them for about $6-12 depending on where and if it was organic.

canned food is a rip off if you value high protein. it's mostly flavor additives. i'm thinking of trying the new yellowstone brand chili just because i'm stupid and liked the first couple eps of the show. i would probably need to add more ground beef.

if it scares you, just use tomato paste in a tube instead. they sell it at traderjoes, made in italy, for like $4. lasts longer than getting the canned version. and a tin of anchovies is around 2-$3. they also come in jarred version. it's just pure saltiness if you eat it on its own. i like it. at steakhouses, when they make a caesar by your table, they use anchovies.

grilled cheese sandwiches probably. A whole loaf of sliced, store-brand white bread is 50 cents at aldi, or $1 at a normal chain store. If you go to a store with a deli that slices their own cheese, you can get like half a pound of sliced white american for like $3-4. Mayo up the bread, sear, add cheese, combine, flip, wa la. probably somewhere around 500 calories per sandwich and well under a dollar.

Another option is store-brand macaroni and cheese: <$1 a box, which prepared is like 1400 calories. A negligible amount of milk and 1/4-1/3 stick butter per pox.

They actually had a pretty varied diet. Assuming you’re speaking of the peasant class. Seasonal ovo-vegetarians for the most part. They had greens and root veggies. They also made use of stuff we don’t consider as good so much these days. Every colonial era cookbook has entire recipes devoted to dandelions.

There were a lot of stews and soups and such. There is such a thing as palate fatigue which naturally decreases caloric intake. Plus broth based soups give good nutrients and satiate as well.

Just KYS and get it over with. No life is worth living in such misery. Dig a pit somewhere and make a camp fire, at least. I think I would prefer a homeless lifestyle fending off meth addled invaders with clubs on a weekly basis than only being able to use a microwave to cook food.

to get my "daily values" for nutrients I just supplement since I get literally zero amounts of some "needed" nutrients. It came down to AG1 ($3/day) vs Thorne's 2/day vitamin ($0.90/day)

Women are a meme which should not be considered in such circumstances. If they need beards to reproduce properly, so be it. Just make their happy trails all soft and cushy. We can keep pushing so long as they can take it.

To add variety to the other suggestions:
Canned tuna with hot sauce;
corn is best cooked in the microwave before shucking;
sweet potatoes and potatoes are lanced and cooked whole in the microwave;
bacon, if you can afford it, cooks very well in the microwave, but you lose the grease;
and rice is best cooked in the microwave. Use the recipe "How to Cook Basmati Rice in the Microwave - Champagne Tastes" for any rice and adjust power and time if necessary to get the same energy.

I realized that after posting, but it gets the point across.

First, clean up your diet. You're on the path now. Next, improve the quality of the foods you are buying. Budget will be your pressure here but over time you can find better deals on better quality items. If you really want to eat healthy, once you've gotten the first part down, increase your budget slightly and over time. I.e., a little bit better rice. Grass fed cuts. Stuff like that.

You do want to look at your macros. That would be your calories, protein, fat, and critically fiber. Then after this your micros which takes time learning about all the different foods. Grapes are great for resveratrol. Get interested in that stuff but don't sweat it. Focus first on your meal making and cooking skills and the macros. Then deep dive in how to improve over time.

Use it like you would use a seasoning. It adds flavor depth to a lot of things.

I bought 12 eggs for 25 cents at a North Carolina Aldi somewhere in suburban Charlotte in 2020.
