When I was broke I’d just get a store brand box if pasta for $1 and a jar of sauce for like $2.50. I could make 3 or 4 meals out of that.

When I was really broke, I’d just eat a plate of rice with some hot sauce and some orange chicken sauce and pretend that I had some chicken on it.

Oh, and grilled cheese sandwiches. Get that store brand bread and some cheese from the deli...

Back in the day it was hamburger helper, now it’s ramen or a hot dog from Quik Trip. I ain’t got no problem with the gas station food

It was a joke!
Fish cakes (tuna or sardines)/fish stir fry if you don't have an egg

Drain and mash a tin/pouch of that, add two tbsps or so of flour or pancake mix, add any leftover onion/garlic/corn and season with: blk pepper, sea salt, oregano, parmesan cheese and hot sauce.

Stir in a small egg and form into a huge patty or 3-6 smaller ones,

Fry in butter or oil for 4 mins per side on 6.

If you don't have spices in your cabinet :mjpls:

Was a meal I ate when I was broke in college, and it’s a reg lunch now because it’s cheap, healthy, easy, can cook a variety of ways and still delicious. Eggs. Add whatever to it. All sorts of veggies, fry Em, scramble Em, add some sausage or beef, peppers, salsa etc

Yardmon ting. Although canned beef aint too cheap neither is saltfish (and we all know Ackee expensive as hell).


I want to kill everything in sight when the key to open my bully beef breaks off the can.

I just use a can opener when this happens

Most of these dishes are quick weekday meals…. Who knew it was considered “struggle”

One time I had to take a hammer to the can when the key broke. Not one of my finer moments. :mjgrin:
By the time you got it open
