Today, I made pasta.
Nothing fancy, I simply boiled a packet of San Remo Elbows, divide them into two, one part for breakfast and another for dinner.
I popped a can of carbonara
sauce and a can of mushroom for breakfast. For dinner, it will be a can of tomato sauce and a cup of frozen mix veggies.
The overall cost is RM20. That is like five dollar to feed a family of six members for breakfast and dinner.
If we go to a diner, the price for a plate of pasta is around RM10.
Do the math.

Thanks 
I try to save money whenever and wherever possible. It is not everyday that I can cook meals, though.

That is true
I saved around RM100, give and take. Can you believe it?
Cooking your own meal is definitely cheaper than those overrated food out there.

That is a good bargain but I am not a fan of pasta for breakfast.

Yes, it is a good deal indeed.
No worries, you can have pasta whenever you feel like it. I made it for breakfast since my family prefer rice and protein for lunch.
