I personally know some folks who spend all their money on fast food, and then online it seems pretty common folks not knowing how to cook causes massive financial problems.
My super duper cheap meal that takes no effort is “lazy rice veggie soup”: Can of peas and carrots cooked with a bouyon cube until cube is dissolved Add cooked rice to mix, and heat until rice is flavorful with absorbed broth
I do a cup of dried rice, and a can of peas and carrots which means the soup has 800ish calories and I think it’s pretty good as it’s either 2 small meals that you can have sides with, or one large one!
So what are your cheap meals you like to make? The less well known, the better!
Eggs and rice. You cook the rice, then throw it in a frying pan with a bunch of eggs. It’s like scrambled eggs with carbs.
isn’t that just fried rice?
Huh… maybe? I use closer to a 1:1 egg rice ratio. So it feels more like eggs.
It’s the same ingredients, but it wouldn’t taste or feel like regular fried rice. Different method.
I do this too! Such a good quick snack.
I swear by putting Tamari on it before eating.
That’s genius. I’ll give it a try
