Is there a food that is cheap, delicious and healthy at the same time?
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!

Yes but it's kind of a cheat... The food must be free somehow for one reason or another... This, in and of itself, makes it more delicious even if it was delectable to begin with. Also, obviously the healthy part is important first if it's important to you at all.
Oh wait... Did I wander out of /c/unethicallifeprotips
It'll be cool when them shits above become autolinks that work
