In a person's life, a "personal financial crisis" can occur when you have to count literally every penny. And sometimes it happens that you can afford to spend no more than 50 rubles a day on food. It is quite possible to live in such an economical mode for some time.
Instructions
Step 1
Of course, you will have to forget about the variety of menus and delicacies during a difficult financial situation. Such food can also be called healthy with a big stretch, but still it is quite possible to eat 50 rubles a day.
Step 2
If cash receipts are planned soon and it is only necessary to hold out in this mode for 1-2 days, it would be logical to consider this as an excuse to arrange a fasting day for yourself, which is useful for the figure and will not harm health. So, for 50 rubles, you can buy yourself a liter of milk, kefir or inexpensive drinking yogurt and divide it into 5 servings, drinking them throughout the day. Or buy a kilogram of apples, bananas or cucumbers (if you wish, you can find these products at a discount).
Step 3
If, within the framework of such a meager budget, it is necessary to hold out for a week or even longer, you will have to take a more serious approach to planning your diet. Of course, the best option is to have a small amount that needs to be distributed over a known limited number of days. In this case, you can think over the menu for this period and buy a small stock of the necessary products.
Step 4
It is much more difficult if you have to plan your diet based on the amount of 50 rubles. in a day. In this case, it is extremely difficult to save somehow, and it is almost impossible to acquire a stock of products.
Step 5
In any case, first you need to audit the stocks available in the house. If you have sugar, salt, tea or coffee, at least a small supply of cereals, pasta and vegetables, it becomes much easier to plan your diet. If there are no supplies, most likely, having 50 rubles a day, you will have to limit yourself to one dish and 1-2 meals during the day. Either way, there are certain foods that will help you out if you are on extreme budget.
Step 6
Carrots and onions, for example, are inexpensive, but roasting them can make simple boiled rice, buckwheat, or pasta not only nutritious, but really tasty. Buying 2 medium carrots and a couple of onions will cost you around 15 rubles. You can buy a pack of pasta for them, a pack of rice or buckwheat (around 20-30 rubles) and a pack of margarine (about 10 rubles) - and you will provide yourself with food for a couple of days.
Step 7
Eggs are somewhat more expensive, but they also serve as a wonderful "life-saving" product. Containing a lot of protein, they are quite capable of replacing meat for a while. Having spent on a dozen eggs (about 40 rubles), on the first day, you can limit your purchases to a couple more packages of instant noodles (if you crumble eggs into it, you get a quite satisfying and tasty dish), but in the next couple of days you can pamper yourself, for example, an omelet with pasta (you will need about 20 rubles for half a liter of milk and another 20 rubles for a package of pasta) or croutons (you need to buy milk with bread or a roll).
Step 8
A good solution would be to purchase some potatoes, especially if you have your own pickles. But even if they are not there, nutritious potatoes, cooked in different types (fried, stewed, mashed, boiled, fried with an egg or omelet, in the form of pancakes or potato cutlets), will diversify the menu and not go hungry.
