Right on, Babar! The yield is an obscene pile of food, glad it worked out.


For non-fans of flavoured yogurt, I will also add plain yogurt banged up with Oreo cookie crumbs.





Three tbsp has only 5g sugar (!) -- not too sweet for breakfast, just sweet enough for after dinner.

Before drinking, doner kebab is the ideal food. Super cheap, tastes good, and the grease coats your stomach

Not to mention after as well! As a general rule I always say, when in doubt, kebab.

Before wouldn't the garlic sauce make for brutal burps all night? Not ideal for going out.

The burps are from the beer, the kebab just seasons them.

1lb of pasta(2). newmans own marinara(ya it's good)(3) go add some veggies you can get really cheap(yes even organic if you're resourceful) will feed several people--or one for a cpl days. call it 4bux/day. add some coffee/pastry..and you're good. 10ish bux a day.
pasta was one of the two cheap and filling meals id make for my 4 roomates and i back in the day. everyone would pitch in 1 dollar and id get 1 lb ground beef, 1 pack of pasta, and 1 99 cent can of hunts tomato sauce. i usually would already have white onions, crushed red peppers, garlic, parsely, parmesan, and olive oil in the kitchen.

made it like this.
1-get water boiling
2-put beef in a plastic bag toss onions, garlic, red peppers in there with meat and squish it all together from the outside of the bag. this is a clean and easy way to mix the stuff in the beef.
3-brown the beef and add the pasta to boiling water.
4-add sauce to browned beef and add remaining onions garlic and peppers. i put half in the beef half in the sauce.
5- drain pasta return to pot toss in olive oil and parsley.
6- either toss sauce into pasta in pot or preferably serve pasta with sauce on top. add parmesan. this is enough to fill 5 guys up till they cant move.

My roommate used to make bacon sandwiches. Chop up some garlic into butter spread onto a loaf of bread, cook bacon (soft, not crispy), and throw peppers and onions in the bacon grease with korean chili paste (gochujang). Toast for a few minutes. I guess it was a $3-4 meal to feed two, cause you obviously use all the bacon, but realistically you could halve the bacon he used and you probably wouldn't notice. It was like a cheesesteak with bacon instead, and asiany. Slice diagonally with a toothpick through each side and you have a gourmet sandwich.

Haven't had it for like 5+ years, think I'll experiment tomorrow and see if making mini slider versions of this would work for Thanksgiving.
