Ramen Noodles


caramelpeach65
Get you some cheap *** fast food. Any restaurant with a value menu is where you need to be. You won't be eating whole foods healthy but you will have some cash to stretch. As long as this $100.00 stipend doesn't include your fuel expenses you should be fine.

costco top ramen

vegetarian eating works. As others have suggested, happy meals are $2 and ramen is edible, though not nutritious. You can make great tasty soup with beans, veges and a little meat or bones. If you hit the grocery stores in the morning, they often have great markdowns on meats. Fruits and veges that are in season are cheap.

for example, you can eat like this:
yogurt or oatmeal and an apple for breakfast (plus coffee or tea)
sandwich and fruit or a bowl of ramen for lunch (salads are good too but may leave you hungry if you don't have a protein)
dinner - small portion of fish, chicken, burger, etc., veges and a salad, or throw some veges and meat in a bowl of ramen, or make a nice lentil stew, and even those Michaelina's dinners..not much too them..but they are cheap!

cheap protein:
EGGS....one of the best buys in nutrition
CHEESE
hamburger meat
tuna
beans combined with rice or corn
cottage cheese or yogurt
peanut butter
nuts

The things that cost a lot are fancier meat cuts, soda and junk food. Plus prepackaged stuff.

Now a few other tricks -
When a starving student I would cook for friends provided they bought the food.
I made lots of great soups and stews like corn chowder, lentil soup, etc. The Internet is a great resource for free recipes.
You can usually go to the local food bank and they rarely ask questions. You might not be wild about what they give you but it is free.
I would go to happy hours that had good food spreads with friends that liked to drink. They'd drink, I'd order water or some one else would buy me a drink.

In other words...it is doable. View the junk food drought as good for your health! I survived parts of college on $15 a week for food. (yeah a while back...but you can do 20 days for $100)

1) Sleep a lot- if you're not awake, you won't eat. If you sleep till 10, you won't be hungry till 12, aka skipping breakfast.
2) Eat fast food- taco bell has those gigantic burritos for a couple of dollars try that.
3) Free samples!!!!!!!
4) Eat over at a friend's house.
5) Cereal- get a whole box for $5.
6) Domino's 555 deal (3 pizzas $5 each).
7) Try to find some extra cash.


JAK
Buy oatmeal you can add water (no cost). It will stick to your ribs
Buy in bulk like at costco. Good luck


txhypnotist
You can go stay at the hope mission or talk to a church and tell them you need some help. A place to stay, food, water, just for 20 days. If you ask, you shall receive.


evilim
Buy a loaf of bread and a jar of Peanut Butter, that's about $5 and it should last you three or four days. And with the extra money, buy milk to wash it down. :)


DAVER
one thing to buy..."RAMIN NOODLES" - it is soup that only cost about 25 cents a pack...buy a bunch...

I recommend that you buy ingredients that will allow you to make vegetarian soups. Beans, rice, veggies, pasta are all affordable items and can fill you up with lots of good nutrients. Soup has traditionally been a good way to stretch out meager ingredients over several days.

You also should watch for generic brand items of whatever you choose to buy, in store discounts, and coupons. These sorts of things can help cut down the costs of whatever items you are purchasing.

You may also want to look into Food Banks in your area, as they may provide an opportunity to supplement your $100.

Stay away from Fast Food, Alcohol, and junk food for the next month to keep costs down. You need to make sure that whatever you choose to purchase and eat contributes to your health and daily energy, especially with limited funds.

Good luck to you!


dan_evil07
I have done that myself, and it's actually not to hard, buy a lot of pasta, eggs beans, rice, bread and cheese, maybe some sauces and you are set!, if you cook a half pound of beans they should last you at least four days, you get the idea.

you should buy a couple boxes of generic cereals.
a lot of them taste similar to the real stuff, and cereal is usually pretty good anyways.

maybe you should try doing some little job on the side like mowing some lawns or something. 100 bucks is pretty hard to get by on.


browneyedmom
walmart. walmart is a lifesaver.


jean
go to walmart or local grocery store
well, i am in new york, so don't know how much things are in your neighborhood

eggs are 88 or 99 cents a dozen, so you can have eggs in the morning with quaker oatmeal, that's about $1.90 cylinder, that would last you a month, a handful is enough for breakfast
a gallon of milk is about 3 dollars

breakfast: 2 dozen eggs, oatmeal and 2 gallons of milk is about 10 dollars

for lunch, In walmart, you can buy pasta, noodles for less than a dollar a bag, look for Great Value brand, a can of Prego pasta sauce is less than 3 dollars, you can get small pizza for 89 cents too. they taste better than regular pizza. it's in the frozen section with tv dinners. so have pizza or pasta for lunch, that's a dollar or two if you are a guy

lunner: 2 dollars a day*20=40 dollars

for dinner: buy chicken drumsticks or thigh family pack for 7 dollars, it has about 16 pieces, if you have 3 pieces a night, it should last you 5 nights

buy a leg of pork, they are 99 or 89 cents a pound, 10-12 dollars a leg, get it home and cut them into portions that's enough for you. i get about 6 pieces per leg, but it's for 2 people, so it should last you a week.

get 2 pounds of thinly sliced spice ham, 4.99 per pound, that's 10 dollars, get a bag of whole wheat bread for 2.87, this should make more than 7 sandwiches

so far that's 83 dollars, so spent 5 dollars a week on vegetables and fruits. buy vegetables and fruits that are sale, peppers, celeries are usually on sale for 99 cents, cabbage is about 50 cents, apples are 79 cents, cucumbers are 3 or 4 for a dollar

by the 20th day, if you have 2 dollars left, buy yourself an ice cream. good luck :)

Call DHS in your area

As if any churches give away food in your area

Also your circumstances may qualify you for a one time assistance check from DHS

Thats all I got
