Solid post. I've never been a big starch person (except with soups/stews) We sub cauliflower, broccoli, and various squash where most people will have rice, potatoes, or noodles.
While I tend not to eat many processed foods, you're right in that the time is cut significantly if you would go that route. (and if you buy 5 bags of potatoes are almost always on sale and are always inexpensive) Another solid option that's cost efficient is eggs. They're nothing but protien and even healthier if you remove the yokes).
Oh, you can boil eggs in a rice cooker, too. Then you'll always have a hard boiled egg to throw in your bag.
Eggs are insanely versatile and delicious. I'd upvote your posts, except that I've been given the "I'm AOU's master and hero" badge here...plus upvoting itself is for faggots.
Your posts are worthy of reading to people who consume trash food though.
do you know how many alts I've had before? I still think you are my frenemy AOU
