Watching mythical kitchen about hash browns and wondering if anybody have any ideas on how to make potatoes into other things that are extremely cheap. I usually have only potatoes and margarine at last 2 weeks before I get food stamps because it isn’t enough to cover basic food things.

Does anybody know any good ideas or recipes or something that does not require a lot of other one time ingredients? That’s really cheap on quantities, like spices, where it can last a while with it being really inexpensive.

Things I have is absolutely basic cooking skills and cooking appliances. Microwave oven and stove. I don’t have much of anything because and can’t afford anything

Anybody have any ideas or recipes or thoughts?

    When I’m low on money I get lentils and potatoes and rice. I would dice up the potatoes fairly small, rinse the rice and lentils and then cook all three in a pot of water on the stove usually with just some salt and pepper and curry powder. By the time the rice is done everything is cooked through and a big pot of that could last me a couple of days!
