What's Cooking?!

A good local plate lunch can cost anywhere $8-$12. The USDA estimates the weekly average lunch meals for an adult in Hawaii is $60.40. Multiply that by 52 week and annual $3,244.80 a year.

The Economic Lunch Diet is simple.... all you need is 5 people that can cook & $15 a day. Each day one person is tasked to feed five people lunch. It doesn’t matter what you make (with certain dietary allergic exceptions) as long as it only cost $15 to make.

We cook what we know how to cook and that leaves us with the same lunch. But who wants that? So, with 5 different cooks at the table, there's variety to our lunch at work. Plus, working a full-time job 5 days a week and only preparing one lunch is a piece of cake don't you think?

Keep reading for our adventures in the Kitchen and how we try to stay under budget.
