SUPER CHEAP FOOD (my recipes)

I am at the moment needing to deal with the CHALLENGE of poverty in my daily life. With some brief research one standard of poverty is spending 2dollars a day on food-in my situation it doesnt seem easily possible at less than 3Euros a day. But I am trying and if I can attempt an occassional 2 dollar day, i will be proud.

I have discovered some recipes that I in fact love. I know they can be improved upon and will do so slowly.
Some of this knowledge and experimentation helped our faerie gathering come in under budget ! The least i could do was offer talent and knowledge since I couldnt easily donate cash.
