30 on $30 Days 19 & 20

As I'm writing this I can't believe I have only 10 more days left of this challenge. Trying to be as creative as possible with what I have, but the flavors are getting a bit mundane. I would like to eat more different types of vegetables and a piece of fruit...and heck even a piece of cake would be great. Strangely enough, I am not craving meat. All in all, it has not been too bad, considering that I do have a meal to eat every day.

DAY 19 


 Breakfast: Left overs from last nights dinner. Costs .25 cents

Lunch: Trying to use more of the tomato sauce since I have so much left. 
Made potato, bean and egg tacos. Costs .30 cents

 Dinner: This was inspired by my friend Kirby who inspired me to do this challenge. 
Bean, rice and hard boiled egg tostada with a side of potatoes. Cost .30 cents

 Snack: Late night snack. This little frozen bananas with cinnamon number is great! Literally tastes like icecream on my tongue. Costs .10 cents

 Prepping my beans for the week. Easier to make it week by week than day by day. This whole tub will last me all week until Sunday.

I have so much rice left! I decided to make Mexican rice tonight with my tomato sauce since I haven't been using much of the tomato sauce.

I would have spent a total of $11.30 today since there wasn't much activity and all of the meals were prepared at home. New donation total: $380.65

DAY 20 

Breakfast: Beautiful hard boiled egg. It's quick, easy, and gives me enough energy. Costs .10 cents

Lunch: Did I mention how much rice I have left? This plate reminded me of being at a Mexican restaurant. Costs .30 cents

 Dinner: I was able to incorporate a lot of my ingredients today. Carrots, cabbage, beans, rice and an over easy egg. Satiating meal! Costs .35 cents

Late night snack: Potato bean bites. Yummy!


My daily total today would have cost $28.75 which includes lunch out, Starbucks, dinner, and a late night snack. New donation total: $409.40
