Living in NYC, drinking 4 out of 7 nights does not make you an alcoholic. It’s a necessary blast. The diet? Not so much.

You can save a lot of money cooking meals in a crock pot, but you don’t need to limit yourself to one meal a day.

You can cook breakfasts overnight while you sleep, using whole grains or eggs… much cheaper than buying sugar-filled cereals. You can even your make your own yogurt and add real fruit without all the sugar.

I’m biased though, I write at my blog: http://freshslowcooking.com check it out ;)

The red bean receipe has a potential to be fatal. See: http://www.foodreference.com/html/artredkidneybeanpoisoning.html
Red kidney beans, even more than other beans must be both soaked and then boiled for at least ten minutes or they have a propensity to be poisonous. Slow cooked, soaked beans may actually have more of the poison than even raw beans. It is possible that Bill is simply rather unusually tolerant of the poison, but as few as five beans that have been slow cooked but not boiled can be fatal.

Eggs would be a cost effective addition to this diet. $3 for a dozen (or $4.50 for two dozen) will add a whole new level of “fullness” to your day, and a great deal of nutritional comfort to your immune system. Otherwise, love this article!
