Thats my typical shopping list ~$60 at Kroger with sales. If you need more specific recipes, let me know.

Massive pot of chili = many, many meals! Maybe a pot of 3-bean turkey chili? Filling and low cal, uses canned beans and some spices, and feeds a LOT of people....reheats well, too! This is my typical cheap go-to, because I almost always have canned beans in my cupboard, since I stock up whenever they are on sale, as well as all of the spices. Realistically, all I have to buy is the onion, pepper, garlic, turkey, and tomatoes (and I often have crushed tomatoes on hand, too...), so it doesn't end up costing more than maybe $10 for me to pull this together. The batch probably makes about 8-10 servings.

Saute 1 chopped onion, 1 chopped green bell pepper, 3 cloves minced garlic in a soup pot or dutch oven until translucent. Add in 1 package (roughly 1.33 lbs) ground turkey or ground chicken. Cook until no pink is left; add 2 tablespoons cumin, 2 tablespoons chili powder, 1 tablespoon dried oregano, and cayenne pepper to taste. Add in 28oz crushed tomatoes and 1 cup water. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered, for 30 minutes. Drain and rinse one can each of black beans, kidney beans, and pintos. Add to chili, remove cover, and cook for an additional 20 minutes.

Every weekend I make a crock pot meal that can be easily divided for my lunches. I have made chili, chicken veggie soup, borsht, butternut squash soup with curry. By doing this I end up with a selection of foods in the freezer so I dont get bored. The crustless quiche previously mentioned is an awesome way to pre prepare breakfast. I also hard boil 1 dozen eggs, peel and store for a quick after workout snack

bump!
