I know about having to live off rice, beans, ramen, etc. you’re spot on about how quickly you can get tired of it. My advice would be to get any kind of meat protein you can to put in there. Even if it is goy slop “meat.” You can still get sausage for cheap and if you slice it up thin and fry it up, that adds a new texture and flavor. Pop a little of that sausage grease in there. I have challenged myself a few times over the years to only spend X on groceries for the month to help get my finances back in the black. Beans and rice are always on the list. Cheap sausage. Peanut butter, broth mix (like bouillon cubes), canned vegetables eggs (when they don’t spike to the prices we have seen on and off during Biden years) and fresh seasonal vegetables that were at their lowest price of the year), and willpower. If you have a grocery store that puts bulk ripened fruit in a bag for cheap, that’s a jackpot. Ingles chain of stores seem to all do this with bananas. That’s a jackpot getting pounds and pounds of bananas for like a dollar. Ideally you don’t want to eat processed food but sometimes our realities dictate we will. Doesn’t have to be permanent.
