Can someone analyze my diet and give me tips?

So here's my almost daily diet. I am guilty of eating pretty much the sam thing everyday
- 3 eggs for breakfast with a little bit of miracle whip for the taste.
- 300g of pasta with a sauce I make myself which includes, half a bell pepper, half an avocado, a tomato, a piece of garlic, 2 green onions, 3 pieces of broccoli, a third of a can of black beans, hot sauce, dill weed, basil, parsley, a spice called garlic plus. I toss it all in the blender and I have my sauce. It makes a huge bowl so I normally have some left for dinner.
- I snack on almonds, cabbage and I eat a spoonful of whats left in the can of black bean here and there.
- One cup a green tea and one cup of coffee
- 2 cans of Pepsi (yes I know, I shouldn't)
That's pretty much it...
I eat that like 5 days a week... It's easy to make and I love the taste.
What should I add to this? I'm normally full all day, I never get hungry due to the beans and avocado (these things will make you feel full for a long time).
It's a dirt chead diet too. 20$ of groceries, and I'm good for a week.
So Tips on making it better?

Do you have any goals as far as your diet goes? Weight loss? Muscle gain?

Idk maybe add some fruits in there, maybe get a little variety of protein instead of just beans and eggs. Overall not too bad though

No goals. Just eating for the sake of surviving

I don't know about the rice. I eat a lot of pasta already, wouldn't add too much carbs and mmake me fat?

Eating for the sake of being healthy then it honestly looks great. Your getting your good fats in you (heart health) youd also be surprised how healthy egg yolk is for you. Eat eggs and youll never need a multi vitamin. Only thing I'd cut is the pepsi but even then thats not bad.
Maybe add some quinoa? Great source of slow digesting carbs and highest protein content of any grain.

Carbs do help you gain weight if your worried about it. More veggies and fruit though if ur consuming a lot of carbs

There's not really much of a way to give diet advice without knowing your stats, activity levels etc.
But you need variety, it's the spice of live

that's not true, but it's still a good idea to limit soda consumption. I probably average 2 or 3 a month

Club soda is good if you want something carbonated without all the sugar. I think it's got a fair amount of sodium though.

Soda is fucking horrible for you. 50+ g of sugar per can plus tons of other crap. Yuck. I've never liked it.
Drop the soda, and start eating some fruit. Maybe some chicken too instead if always having pasta sauce.

I know soda is often terrible, but it's definitely not a top 5 health hazard is all i was saying

I praise the shit man. My fav is chicken teriyaki with brocolli and snap peas made with quinoa. People into bodybuilding like me should also look into quinoa.

Oh yea, it's a lot worse for you than most people think. With your high fructose corn syrups and your red dye 40s etc etc...(which all can lead to serious health problems, physical and mental) Not to mention you got all that sodium like psi says, which will eventually lead to kidney stones.
There is exactly 0 advantages to drinking soda and a huge list of disadvantages. Honestly drinking 2 beers a day would be less detrimental to your health. It might actually do you good, 1 wheat beer a day is comparable to drinking a glass of milk.

What common food or drink item could possibly be worse? Drinking a soda is basically like eating an extremely processed piece of candy. Only difference is people don't tend to eat candy multiple times throughout the day like they drink soda.
