In other words prepare for the worst but live one day at a time. If you can afford a lobster today don't deprive yourself. |

Otherwise eating on the cheap is making chili and other meals out of what we grow. Quoting: Magix Thanks for the ideas though, I may give them a shot. You can still eat pretty cheaply while getting meat into the meals too. Instead of looking at stew meat, look at breakfast steaks. You can slice those up to go into stew, soup or stir fry and its usually about half the cost of a pack of stew meat. You also have to pay attention to what goes on sale any given week and if you can afford to and you like it, buy some of it and put it into the freezer to save for later. This way you're not buying it a week or two later at full price. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23076684 Theyy should make mandatory cooking classes when people apply for EBT. How freaked out would they be then? I agree.. but I also think that home economics should still be in schools. Almost none of my friends from school know how to cook and they're all freaked out that they'll mess something up if they try. |

I will admit when I was in school Home Economics was a course I took. There are so many easy recipes using soup and pasta that can be found online. Research the internet that is what this amazing info-library was create for. |
