Leftover venison chilli and cornbread, some pepper jack and a four egg omelet.

This meal is stupidly large and insanely cheap. I recommend it.

Cost per person, $1.60

    Yes… I make this from time to time. My chili doesn’t have venison though. I envy that. My chili has beef and sausage, and 2 kinds of beans. I see you went with the dark red kidney beans. I use those and pinto beans. I’m torn on which is better for chili and I’ve found that both together is best.

    You’re looking at 24g protein for the eggs alone. The cheese adds about 8. The chili adds more, but it’s hard to say. For a 4 egg omelet (I do 3, myself), I’d say you probably have 40g protein in the omelet alone.

    Also, I’m bariatric (sleeve), so that’s like 3 meals for me, and I’ll pass on the cornbread and home fries/hash browns. Though I do love some corn bread, and I’m part Irish so I have to love potatoes, it’s in my blood.

      Huh! As someone who loves beans and chili, I’ll have to try that.
