5 budget-friendly dinners for the Nigerian bachelor

Here are top 5 picks for economical and delicious healthy foods.

There are plenty of ways to save money without sacrificing the quality of your diet. Below are top 5 picks for economical and delicious healthy foods

1. Fruits

Make affordable fruits like bananas, apples, and oranges your favourites and save more costly options like strawberries, pomegranates for special treats.

Bananas, in particular, are a bargain hunter’s dream.

Don’t worry about them going to waste either; if they start to turn black and squishy, toss them into a plastic storage bag and freeze for later. Use frozen bananas in healthy fruit smoothies, or mash them up and mix into oatmeal, low-fat muffins, or pancakes.

2. Oats

Oats are one of the cheapest healthy breakfast options as they are loaded with healthful nutrients.

Buy plain, dry oats in the big canisters rather than the individual packets, which are way more costly. This way, you’re also in control of the added ingredients, sugars, and total calories in your breakfast. Great mix-ins include fresh or dried fruit (such as diced apple, sliced banana, berries, or raisins).

3. Suya and bread

Because suya is bae and mixing it with bread makes it a cheap and affordable meal.

Besides the meat is packed with so many nutrients and the bread full of carbohydrates.

4. Noodles and egg

Eggs are another low-cost, high-quality protein source. When stored properly in the fridge, raw eggs last about three weeks in the shell, so stock up when they’re on sale. Use eggs to whip up cost-effective, meatless dinners like omelettes and egg sandwiches.

Add it to your noodles to give it that extra sauce!

5. Garri and all the supplements

Almighty Garri cannot go unmentioned in this list. Mix it with anything and it would work. Plus, they’re super-affordable and surprisingly easy to prepare. They don’t require presoaking and also cook up quickly.
