I have a theory that there is a impossible trinity (like in economics), where a food cannot be delicious, cheap and healthy at the same time. At maximum 2 of the 3 can be achieved.
Is there any food that breaks this theory?
Edit: I was thinking more about dishes (or something you put in your mouth) than the raw substances
Some popular suggestions include
- fruits (in season) and vegetables
- lentils, beans, rice
- mushrooms
- chicken
- just eat in moderation
Edit 2: Thanks for the various answers. Now there are a lot of (mostly bean-based) recipes for everyone to try out!
Also someone made a community for cheap healthy food after seeing this topic!
Yeah that’s pretty Italian answer because no one else would consider pizza dough to be remotely healthy :D
Really? This type doesn’t have any cheese or topping in general on top. It’s just a carbs meal with very low fat (basically just the oil), essentially, I don’t think it’s inherently unhealthy, and my internet search is all over the place with the results.
But I am fully aware my knowledge about the topic is extremely limited.
