    • ]]>     So I almosted f-ed up the whole challenge. My housemates decided to make roti canai!!! It was so delicious.. but I had already make pork kebabs.

    So I did go over my daily limit yesterday:

    $0.50 | 1 popcorn | midnight snack

    $0.63 | 3 chocolate | breakfast
    $0.20 | 1/3 of M&ms
    $0.18 | 1 can of soda

    $2.88 | shrimp | lunch

    $2.55 | porkkebabs |dinner
    $2.4 | roti canai

    $9.26 | total

    As you can see, my healthy-o-meter was destroyed and I broke all protocols. HOWEVER, I made it up by not ’spending’ as much today:

    $0.8 | curry with bread | breakfast
    $0.18 | 1 can of soda
    $3.00 | fried rice | dinner
    $0.5 | soup

    $4.48 | total

    In combination with Wednesday, it was a total of $13.74. So technically I’m still in the game!

    It was pretty hard yesterday though when you are surrounded by food. But I realize that Asian style cooking is really cheap. You can make things really tasty and healthy for no additional cost. The curry for roti canai was great and I used it for my breakfast/lunch the next day. It had chicken and potato and I ate it on whole wheat bread. Fried Rice is also an example of another healthy dish. You get all your veggie and protein in for half the price and all the taste! Plus, we made extra so there was enough for lunch tomorrow and feed an extra person (which is exactly what we did).
