    I’d probably buy hummus, buy a bunch of new stuff I’ve never tried, maybe buy some red meat a bit more often than once a month or so.

    I also usually don’t buy orange juice for cost reasons so probably that too.

      I don’t know where in the world you are but the Publix near my house always has hummus tubs BOGO and that makes it extremely affordable. I just have to be careful not to look at much else cuz everything else is way too expensive for my blood.

        I live in a pretty HCOL area and buy food pretty conservatively. I can look into the BOGO tubs of it though! Mostly I feel its a snack type food and that’s where I pinch on foods. The snack, desserts etc.

        If I could find it cheap I could probably look into what meals I could have with hummus

      Hummus is pretty cheap if you make it yourself.

      Chickpeas, oil, tahini or peanut butter, garlic, lemon juice and some sort of hot pepper powder if you like it spicy.

        You know, I never actually considered making it myself, I figured I’d need some device or masher etc. To make it, but I’ll look into it!
