What's your go to meal for under 2$ per person that isn't super common?
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!

Bananas, potatoes, corn, oats, bread and rice are all pretty cheap. When I'm trying to not spend any money I'm fine with a bowl of oatmeal with some sliced bananas in it.
I'm more of a "cook over ripe banana into the oatmeal" person.
Gives it good flavor and a bit of sweetness.
I read this at first as an ingredient list,band I was so concerned for your health and stability. Lol.

Just mash it and cook until it looks as sad as you feel looking at it. Then cry while eating it right out of the pot on the kitchen counter.
