After seeing the news telling about how people who work for the government didn't get paid and won't be able to feed their families, I decided to challenge myself by eating almost just from my freezer, fridge and pantry during the time that the government shutdown. I know that I may make a small grocery store run before the week is over for half and half, eggs, and maybe a very few other items, $10 to $20 worth at the most. I am going to try to do without what I normally would run to the store for. I am playing it by ear.
I am not a government worker and do not feel bad for those who are furloughed because I know how people like to live high off the hog, instead of living on less, having savings and being prepped.
Another thought is to come up with some really cheap meals. Please help out with some ideas.
Really cheap meals:
1. Tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches
2. Egg sandwiches (chopped hardboiled or fried egg)
3. Peanut butter and jelly sandwich
4. Eggs and toast
