You have $20 and the following items. You need to eat three meals a day for about two weeks. Your doctor has you on a high protien, low-carb, low-salt, low-fat, and low-cal diet. Eating the same thing over and over bores you. What do you make? What do you buy at the store with your $20?

I'd be buying some bran cereal at the store. And soymilk. Frozen blueberries. And whole wheat bread and whole wheat pasta. You need some fiber.

My flour is whole wheat. I wonder if it would be cheaper to MAKE a few loaves myself?

Well, I'd start with a tuna-green bean casserole thing, and splurge on some french fried onions to put on top

I am having a naughty night on Wednesday. My priest is coming for dinner, and we're having backed macaroni and cheese (the only REAL mac and cheese!), green beans, and Yankee corn bread (cause he's a Yankee, and likes his corn bread to reflect that. lol).

Black beans and rice is one of the easiest real-food meals ever thought of, and take or leave a bit of butter and salt.
