See if your local megamart has one day a week when they’re cheaper, especially. Even better is Costco if you know someone with a membership. Heck, may as well get a Costco hot dog while you’re there.
If you are up for cooking, look for whatever chicken parts are on sale each week or two.
Cook farro instead of rice, it’s chewy and nutty and has protein and fiber
Eat lentils
Bean, farro and cheese burrito - add some of that rotisserie chicken too
I’m really sorry for what you’re going through 💛

yummy and useful bird.
use the meat for a sandwich, make a pasta dish more filling, use in some soup, or go goblin mode and eat straight from the bone.
whole foods or wegmans is your spot for this!

Works great as a hot dish with a starch or as salad additions! marinades add awesome flavor to the chicken pretty easily- 1/4 cup each red wine vinegar and olive oil, 6 grated garlic cloves, 2.5tsp salt, and a bunch (1tbsp) of dried oregano is roughly the Molly Baz marinade recipe I tried this week on a pack of chicken thighs, and it was great! Added some roasted carrot and rice pilaf for one dinner, then added the carrots and chicken to a salad today.
I also have gotten into making a flavorful ground turkey for a base - either taco style and make burrito bowls, tacos even nachos lol OR a larb style (recipe linked) and do a larb bowl with rice or mix the turkey with wavy stir fry noodles or cold rice noodle bowls. If you don’t mind eating things with the same flavor profile for multiple days, there are a bunch of options with these two flavors.
I like making things from scratch, but I’ve found using premade marinades and sauces makes it so much easier.
I am lactose too- these should all be fine to do without dairy! I just do guac or get lactose free sour cream on the taco nights

I’m 50, I say because that makes me unusual in this context. I paid [redacted] for a ticket to the Eras Tour after listening to tswift for 3 weeks, and it was worth it. In second grade my teacher gave kids birthday spankings over her knee, and in sixth grade my teacher told my mom I hadn’t blossomed yet. I’m a good friend, mostly to people on the internet. I’m good at conversing with strangers. I’m usually the oldest person at the show but don’t feel like it. I’m good at being helpful. I’m sarcastic and funny and make myself laugh. I’m a good graphic designer and a conscientious driver. I’m a good photographer and I can successfully follow recipes. I don’t use my Peloton enough. I did a lot of caregiving for my mom for several years, and we enjoyed spending time together even if it was mostly in waiting rooms and my car. The fastest I ever ran a mile was eight minutes and six seconds. I drove the same car for 20 years and then replaced it with another one. I enjoy tipping, giving money to people on the street and Disneyland. I am a fan of baseball, Formula 1 racing and the Criterion Channel. I solve about 80% of New York Times crosswords. I take Prozac and Wellbutrin, and take Trazodone to sleep through the night. I wish I had a glassed in solarium so I could sleep in it on rainy nights. I would like to have a pet cat and a garage. I could happily live eating only cereal and fruit. I overshare on the internet and undershare elsewhere. ✌️💛
