I love preparing meals with little amounts of money - you don't have to break the bank to cook nutritious meals. Naija is hard and most families are struggling to feed. The key is to buy directly from village markets, where foodstuffs are cheaper, and to buy in bulk. (Thread of budget meals: e.g. rice with boiled eggs/beef - pepper N200, tomato N300, red oil N200, maggi N50, larso spice N100, beef N500, 2 cups rice N400, iru/locust beans N100; spaghetti meal - spaghetti N700, pepper N200, tomato sachet N150, red oil N200, maggi N100, iru N100, plus scent leaf/ugu from the garden - total N1,350; meal 3: fried plantain, fried egg, noodles - total N1,950.)
