You can eat really cheap on a slow-carb diet. Here is a prime example. I'm putting the prices paid along with the servings (aside from the greens, you should get four servings of everything else).
Ingredients:
- Rotisserie chicken from Costco ($5.00/4 = $1.25); cut into quarters
- Onion ($1.00/4 = $0.25) - sliced thinly
- Portobello Mushroom ($1.00/4 = $0.25) - diced
- Can of black beans ($1.00/4 = $0.25) (there's a theme here)
- Two garlic cloves (minced)
- Tablespoon of coconut oil
- Greens, walnuts (for "croutons" and texture), maybe some oil and vinegar (these last three ingredients are pretty nominal, so I'll put them at a high cost of $1.00 total for one serving)
I think the math works to $3.00 for a complete meal.
Directions:
It's also pretty easy. Put the greens in a bowl, add walnuts, oil and/or vinegar if you like.
Cut the Chicken into quarters (one quarter = one serving; in my case, I like the dark meat, Beth likes the white meat).
In coconut oil, saute the onions and garlic until caramelized. Add black beans and mushrooms, stir, and cover for five to ten minutes.
That's it! A complete and healthy meal for about three bucks!
