Serving Breakfast For Less Than $1

OK so when out in nature everyone loves a hearty breakfast.  Just because you want to eat well doesn't mean that you need to break the bank, in fact you might be shocked at how inexpensive a good breakfast can be.

The key is buying wholesale at a restaurant supply company, I use Restaurant Depot.  To use it you will need a business that deals with food, like a restaurant or a catering company.  Provided that you can show them documentation that shows you have a business you're golden.

As a cash and carry, Restaurant Depot doesn't do a credit check, you pay with a credit card or cash as you exit the store.  The store is basically a Home Depot sized warehouse but it's filled with just about everything a standard restaurant would need at low low prices.  Here's how my breakfast breaks down:

Medium Eggs - 1 case (15 dozen) $16.53 = 9 cents per egg
Pork Breakfast Sausage, 80 pieces (10lbs) $16.00 = 20 cents per patty
Pancake Mix, 5 lbs $6.70, makes something like 60 pancakes = 11 cents per pancake
Coffee, 34 ounces, ground = $7.55 makes 300 cups of coffee = 3 cents per cup

So a breakfast like this:


Actually only costs 60 cents or 63 cents with a cup of coffee.
