[Discussion]Very first prototype of cheap ($5) paleo + keto nutritionally complete meal. (Omelet + Trail Mix)

All right, so this is the very first prototype of my meal idea. I’m eating it to see how practical it is, and so far so good. Not the most amazing meal but consider the restrictions. :)

It is keto, and paleo.
It is free of gluten, grain, legumes, diary, preservatives or added sugar.

It’s 1900 calories that contain all the nutritional needs for the day. Vitamins, Minerals, amino acids, and Omega 3 fatty acids, fiber and protein for around $5. The omega 3 to 6 ratio is a minimum of 1:4

Super easy to make, in theory: you’d have two packets. One you add to boiling water and then add 6 scrambled eggs too. The other is just a mix of seeds/nuts and is ready to eat.

All products are whole, initially raw, and minimally processed and easy to verify that it is the real deal.

You can’t make counterfeit nuts profitably; unlike all of the adulterated olive oils and other products.
This is because it is very hard for the end user to verify highly processed products. You just have to trust companies like Heul and Soylent. They’re probably honest, but certainly many food products, like olive oil, are adulterated and not up to the standards they claim. Supposedly nearly 70% of olive oil fails quality control in one way or another for what they are being marketed as.

Admittedly this isn’t the most amazing tasting meal, but you can dress it up with butter, spices, salsa, etc and that’s pretty decent.

Few food combinations meet the restrictions I’ve placed on this: complete nutrition, keto, paleo, cheap and easy to make, and easy to validate quality.

Recipe:

Trail Mix Portion:
Hazelnuts 10.7 grams
Almonds 28.3 grams
Sunflower Seeds 50 grams
Pumpkin Seed 50 grams
Hemp Seeds 50 grams

Omelet Portion:
Sun Dried Tomatoes 1.5 grams
Freeze Dried Green Sweet Peppers 6.9 grams
Spinach 27.6grams
Bacon Bits 50 grams
Clams 2.1grams
Eggs 300 grams (6 Large eggs)
Dried Shiitake 19.4 grams

I used linear optimization from a bunch of nutrition and price data scraped from the web, and set certain limitations to make for a palatable meal; cheaper options exist, but it’s like 6,000 calories of chia seeds and sunflower seeds which is totally impractical and too many calories.
