Currently I'm capable of eating for one on this budget with basics like potatoes, salt, pepper, olive oil, shredded cheese, and salsa and some basic soup ingredients. NYC water is drinkable. I just wonder if a nutrition expert could create a solution for low income households. It's not something I've seen anywhere, but I have seen piles of suggestions for systems that cost a lot. I feel like healthy looking people are more likely to feel good about themselves, have the confidence to make income related increases, and overall work on self improvement. I don't know. Just a thought.

It's tough being low income and trying to be healthy.

Any suggestions for maintaining personal nutritional health on a budget of $20 a week in NYC?

Like dry beans, Lentils can be great if prepared properly; just make sure you soak them long enough or they'll cause you some discomfort.

Well, not exactly "cook for me". But my wife an I can't have kids and I wouldn't mind having someone to help out when I'm fixing the car. You know, normal people problems. 😆
