7 Ways to Eat Good on a Hood Budget

Leave a comment
from one of my favorite music groups Dead Prez (check out Bigger than Hip Hop) and the creator of the RBG Fit Club (Revolutionary But Gangster) made a great post on Huffpo called “7 Ways to Eat Good on a Hood Budget” I don’t know about you but I’ve spent most of my life on a “hood budget”. I was lucky enough to have my better half that can make a gourmet meal from nothing, but what can you do? Guess what, even if you have more than a hood budget these ideas are fantastic. Read the article for the particulars. I’ll but his list here but you really need to head over to Huffpo to see his commentary.
