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)
  • lentils, beans
  • rice
  • mushrooms
    • Tuff

      Really easy as well! Sprinkle some vegetable oil, salt, pepper and maybe some cumin or paprika on them and bake them until the edges become brownish. Only way to fail is to oversalt them or burning them to a crisp ;)

      425f sounds more like roasting. They both use the same heat method, but one is more to break down thicker and heartier foods.

        Sometimes I’ll do this when I can find root vegetables on sale. Roasted carrots, parsnips, celery root, fennel, turnips, etc is a great option.
