Tuna, Turnips, Tomato and pearl pasta
Tuna, Turnips, Tomato, and Pearl Pasta.
(whole wheat Couscous)
We try not to eat a lot of pasta but if we do couscous is first on our list. Because it is high in fiber, high protein, and lower in sugar.
Tuna is very low cost form of protein.
This is just one of those easy meals that can be put together in a flash. And pretty healthy. Of course this would be served at lunch time for Patience Replacing her sandwich bread. This is Jerry’s plate we give Patience ½ cup of Couscous.
Price Couscous- .79 cents
Tuna- 89 cents
Tomato- 55 cents
Turnips or Kale $1.50 or you could use can .77 cents
Trying to eat healthy does not have to break the bank. If we did use can foods we rinse them off and try to buy no salt.
