Lunch for about $1 a day: BumbleBee Tuna
Topic: Cooking 5:27 pm EDT, Aug 18, 2005

Let me start by saying I have a good job. I have a job that pays me well. They don't seem to mind if at times I'm underqualified or a bit overwhelmed. Either way I'm not doing this because I have to... it's an experiment, this is science.

Here are the rules and constraints for my experiment:
- I can't spend more than $1 for a meal.
- I can't eat more meals than breakfast and lunch (no elevensies). This should be a meal that can sustain me for the high-impact white collar job.
- It goes without saying that as I'm attempting to do with only a dollar a meal I will be stealing as much as I possibly can.

So here's my first recipe:
Ghetto Office Tuna Salad

Everything except the tuna in the recipe was taken from the condiments tray in my office cafeteria. That means this meal cost me a whopping: $0.44. Regular price for bumblebee is $0.69 but a quick swipe of my safeway card saved two bits.

Ingredients:
* 1 can of BumbleBee Tuna (I used the "Light in Water", but I guess "In Oil" would be just fine.)
* 3 pkts of mayonnaise
* 1 pkt of sweet relish
* 3 pkts of pepper
* 1 pkt of salt
* 1 pkt of mustard
* half a pkt of hot sauce
* as many pkts of crackers as you can steal

This isn't rocket science... drain the tuna in a sink and then open everything except the crackers and mix it together. Eat the mix with crackers. (For completeness I mixed everything in a bowl I got from afore mentioned cafeteria.)

Fankhauser's Cheese Page

So I'm at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival and there was this lady who showed that it's EAZY to make homemade cheese. The hardest part was finding the rennet and decient recipies online.

This guy is a PhD and obsessed w/ making his own cheese on the cheap!. I'm gonna make the fresh mozzarella tomorrow night after I get back from work.

Yes... it's like hacking bacteria to give you food.

Fried Macaroni And Cheese Recipe | Macaroni & Cheese Recipes
Topic: Cooking 7:05 pm EST, Dec  7, 2004

This recipe satisfies three key requirements:
- fried
- cheese
- totally awesome

There's another recipe on cdkitchen to make this w/ frozen stoffer's mac&cheese. I would swap out the flour for corn flour or corn meal.

So good.
