ewww liverIf you're on an ultra tight budget it is important to still get some protein or else you're going to be severely tired all the time. But, meat is expensive. What to do?
Eat liver. It costs less than a quarter of regular meat and has more protein so you don't have to eat as much.
Also, if you have a back yard consider growing spinach, tomatoes, potatoes and other easy things. Once a big tomato patch gets going it is very hard to kill and you'll be able to harvest for years and years, all for free (except for occasional manure and watering).
Oops I just realised when I said protein I meant iron. It isn't fun to be iron deficient. You can get used to anything if you just try, so I think it would be better to endure a few weeks of getting used to liver.ewww liver
That's something I absolutely can't eat no matter how hard I try.
I've been made to eat it for years. It comes back up every time I down a piece.Oops I just realised when I said protein I meant iron. It isn't fun to be iron deficient. You can get used to anything if you just try, so I think it would be better to endure a few weeks of getting used to liver.
Use a food processor to grind it up, mix with cooked tomatoes, beef stock, garlic and cheese, mix with uncooked pasta in a baking tray and bake until cooked. The garlic and tomatoes will hide the flavour and being minced up you won't notice the texture as much. I can sympathise with hating something you were forced to eat as a kid though.I've been made to eat it for years. It comes back up every time I down a piece.

potato is still light years more healthy than most of the suggestions in this thread, especially ramen and rice with soyI dunno about nutritious. Pretty much all starch. And I say that as a person of Irish descent who loves potatoes be it mashed, baked, twice-baked, steamed, fried, whatever.
What difference does being genetically modified make?potato is still light years more healthy than most of the suggestions in this thread, especially ramen and rice with soy
most likely non GMO unlike ramen and rice and soy
has fiber and much more nutrition than other starches like grains
Ew, not tasty at all.Cheap meat(chicken hearts and the like).
Their is also another part of the chicken, for the same price that might be more to your taste(i tend to forget the name).Ew, not tasty at all.
I would go with the meatless option in that case.
