Roasted asparagus and a fried egg
Roast
Roasting
Eggs, those nutrient-dense lovely little delicious packages of health, typically cost around 30 cents a piece (even if you're buying them from the local farmer, which you should!). Given that the incredible egg gives you so much nutritional bang for your buck, cheap meals are easily centered about them. <br /> <br />Now that it's spring in New York, the Greenmarket is exploding with bright green bunches of asparagus. No slouch in the health department, these stalks provide a wide variety of antioxidant nutrients, including vitamin C, beta-carotene, and the minerals zinc, manganese. Since they're in season, they're also a bargain: one large bunch, enough for a couple meals, sets you back a few dollars. <br /> <br />Pair this with a piece of crusty bread (I like to get mine from Blue Ribbon bakery, where a sliced half loaf costs $2), and you have an incredibly healthy, delicious, well-balanced meal that costs around $3!
