What are some Veeky Forums alternatives to brown rice and whole wheat pasta? Are any of them as cheap as normal rice or pasta?

I eat diced cabbage with everything. No flavor, log calories and keeps my shits in high volume.

Whole wheat bread from your local bakery.

why cant you eat brown rice or pasta?

Holy shit, I never thought this I'd find a use for this memebase tier reaction image but it looks like today's the day. At first I thought "how the fuck am I going to use that in a dish where I'd normally have rice or pasta?" but then I realised, I can make Veeky Forums sandwiches. user, you're a fucking genius.

Now lets just hope that I don't have to break my bank for this.

I sometimes get bored of them and when it comes to diet, diversity is always a good thing.

Potatoes
Sweet potatoes
Beans (red, white, black, black eyed)
Lentils
Chickpeas
Green peas
Bulgur
Quinoa

Step it up OP

quinoa is pretty cheap if you buy it in bulk. if you're brace enough you can try savory oats. there's also couscous

>Potatoes
>Sweet potatoes
Holy shit why did I never consider these? I'll have to check my notes, I must've had a reason to rule them out.

>Beans (red, white, black, black eyed)
>Lentils
>Chickpeas
I honestly thought these were mostly sources of protein.

>Green peas
>Bulgur
>Quinoa
Aren't these all expensive as fuck?

??

whole wheat things are usually cheaper in stores due to demand

Bullshit. I've never seen that in any shop that I've ever been in which sells both.

here in norweg thats usually how it is

White rice. Brown rice is a fucking meme

Quinoa is actually relatively cheap, for two meals it costs me $2.50.

>$2.50 for 2 meals
>£2 in my currency
>i.e. what I've just paid for 1kg of pasta, 8 fucking meals worth
>cheap

buckwheat. 13 grams of protein per 100 grams and they're also way more delicious than rice (for me)

$2.5 IS cheap for two meals. Definitely not "expensive as fuck" as said.
>125 g pasta (450 kcal) per meal
You are either a 5'3 female or eat like 8 meals a day
As for , legumes are 50% carbs and 25% protein by weight. So they aren't exactly a "protein" source, but you don't need meat with them to meet your proton goals, unlike with rice
Green peas, bulgur and quinoa are all dirt cheap, especially bulgur.

Pearled barley is god tier
Also rye bread is good alternative to wheat

Where do you guys buy this shit? I don't recall ever seeing it in a supermarket.

>tfw your TDEE is below 2k
user's gonna make it.

Potatoes (white or sweet) are literally 100% superior in literally every way

Just eat sweet potatoes and fuck your notes jesus

OP here. I checked my notes. No word of a lie, the only occurrence of the word potato in them is "Why aren't you buying potatoes?". Long story short, I'm a fucking retard.

>just discovered bread

It's the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Look up how to make cauli-rice. its big in paleo. Cheap and counts as a veggie

Sweet potatoes are very good. For a lot of people they only use brown rice and sweet potatoes for their carbs.

Fucking hell, I never knew that Veeky Forums loved potatoes so much.
