MGTOW cooking and other frugal stuff (self.MGTOW)

themachiavelliprince が 投稿

So I bought a slow cooker on Black Friday and it's been the best thing. I buy a ton of beef and throw in two cans of diced tomato and veg and that's my lunch for the week. I shaved my grocery bill down by a couple hundred bucks since I moved to a slow cooker and eating more eggs and oats (cheap, abundat). Been good for the gains too. Any other frugal cooking or such? I want to further reduce my monthly expenditure.

I used to be like you, friend. I loved my slow cooker - easy prep, good food, ready when you get home for dinner. Then I discovered the magic of a pressure cooker and my life has been forever changed.

Dry beans to fully cooked in 45 minutes. Pulled pork in an hour. Chicken soup from quarters in an hour. And, the electric ones also double as slow cookers.

To recap: chicken quarters, beans, and pork shoulder are usually on my list. I ask the supermarkets which days they typically get deliveries because that is they days the reduced veggie rack is stocked - usually perfectly good food there that doesn't fit on the regular shelves.

Frozen veggies go one sale at least once a month, so I stock up and eat them over time. Also using a pressure cooker / stock pot to make, well, stock from bones. Either leftovers from cooking or cheap/free from the butcher.

I've wanted to get a pressure cooker ever since I saw Alton Brown cook chilli with one on Good Eats.

Homemade coleslaw is cheap as fuck.

Carrots, red onions and cabbage. You can use greek yoghurt as an alternative to mayo if you want to keep it healthy.

Chicken thighs. They are way cheaper than breast meat and they taste better too. I'll also roast whole chickens, use the leftovers for lunch and then make stock out of the bones. Homemade stock is better for you (you can control the amount of salt), is ridiculously cheap and easy to make and keeps forever if you freeze it. Just freeze it in quantities you'll cook with.
