Yooooooo it's me, ya boi, Crodyman, wondering what y'all's go-to cheap meals are. My hope is we can fill this thread with ideas and recipes that is wholly inclusive to anyone regardless of their budget or cooking skillz.
I'll start with one from my college days:
Peanut Butter Ramen
Take your basic shit-tier chicken ramen, boil water and add the noodles and seasoning packet. Then add a hefty tablespoon of CHUNKY peanut butter to the soup. once the peanut butter is incorporated, crack an egg into the boiling soup. DON'T STIR FOR AT LEAST A MINUTE. This will allow the egg to remain whole. After 4 minutes since adding the noodles, pour soup and noodles into a bowl. Top with fresh sliced scallions, sesame seeds, and sriracha. BONUS POINTS: if you have them, thinly slice green cabbage and add to the bottom of your bowl before pouring the soup in, and top with freshly sliced scallions and thinly sliced jalapenos. an 8-outta-10 cheap meal every time.
