I posted something once but the ignoramuses ripped me a new asshole - I'll try again. This is a very simple strategy to get twice as many meals out of the same amount of food. It does not magically double the total calories or the total nutrition, i am aware of this, it is strictly to increase the physical volume of your available food to get two meals out of one meal's worth of food. It's very simple.

BOIL everything you buy. Put your vegetables in one pot, and your meat in another. At one meal serve the boiled-out vegetables with a gravy made from the meat broth, and at the next meal serve the boiled-out meat with a bowl or mug of vegetable broth. The idea is that you get the nutrition of both meat and vegetables at each meal. Since you no doubt have cornbread or some side dish with each meal anyway this is no problem to do at all, and it instantly doubles the physical volume of your food. And it works well with your existing strategy. Even you bean freaks can get both soup and beans out of the same pot of beans. It even works with canned beans! And if boiled meat doesn't sound appetizing to you, you can still bake, fry, or bbq it AFTER you boil it out. You could still stir fry the vegetables too. Frying gives everything back their flavor.

Okay, flame away >:-(


No flaming here hon... I imagine many will be learning this lesson.
I've fed lots of people using this basic technique. The only thing I would point out is that you don't need to actually boil all meat... use the bones and trimmings for this. Add a tsp to tbs of apple cider vinegar (does Not flavor the broth) and you will have extracted added calcium too.

I'd like to add more but Must fly... May add to this later.
You just keep on keepin' on Anonymous Coward 86532... You're on the right track.
