Cheapest meal you've eaten?

I had 3rd bag of French fries done in the dryer. Frozen peas and tinned meat balls just now, actually quite nice and less than £1. Don’t know about healthy though.

I just ate a $1.25 grilled chicken and cheese sandwitch and a glass of 1% milk. I’m going to have to get used to economizing more after our extra SNAP benefits run out.

I had a ramen dinner not too long ago. I ate two bags of them. I’ve got more. You just gave me an idea for breakfast.

Cheapest meals? Anything from the food pantry. Hamburger gravy over mashed potatos is one.

And ramen is, as well. But I don’t eat ramen packs alone anymore. I only use the noodles out of them. I fry up chicken or beef in sesame oil, theow in garlic and ginger and onions, then add whatever frozen veggie I have. Soy sauce and oystwr sauce. In another pot I cook the noodles, once done I toss them with rhe meat and veggies.

Still cheap, but very tasty

I love Indian food. Come to think of it I’m out of curry. Indian food is healthy too.
