Other than the pasta, it's healthy.

Is this a joke? Pasta is extremely healthy.

Yes. I love me some COMPLEX CARBS and SUGAR.

I try to go light on the pasta (like 2:1 meatsauce vs pasta). Is there a healthier option?

No pasta?

Re: cereal mix -- some chopped dried apricots add a huge burst of flavor to cereal. Chopped dried apples are good too. Gives you something to look forward to in each bite and makes the milk delicious.

The proper approach in this situation is to one-up his dietary knowledge and point out that Cheerios lower cholesterol.

LOL. At Thanksgiving I was surrounded by retarded awful food, and one of the funniest were these "heart healthy" tortilla chips. All over the package it says "heart healthy" a hundred times. Of course it's just fried starch with a tiny bit of flax seed added.

i have a very easy grocery list. i keep the following on hand:

boiled eggs
dry roasted unsalted almonds
mixed greens and tomatoes for salad
frozen chicken (40 min in oven, 5 min to prepare a sauce)
dark chocolate (mmm)
some form of leftovers (chili w/ grass fed ground beef, or something else)
oatmeal (trader joes has a healthy kind w/ blueberries and omega 3, stay away from the flavored ones in general though and mix in your own fruit instead)
high fiber cereal w/ raisins (12g per serving!)
some of those prepackaged carrots w/ ranch for snack
green tea

that's about all i eat.

Re tuna having a short shelf life, I make it from those 4 pound cans and it lasts 5 days easy, often more.

Maybe your fridge is not as cold as mine? Different people use different settings, and warmer fridges spoil things a couple days faster, easy.

What, you mean just the meat-sauce? Seems pretty bland and unpalatable to me.
