Canned tuna in a tortilla + desired sauces and veggies (time for leftover Taco Bell sauces)
Cheap ass ground beef for chili. Beef, onions, + a few spices is all you need for at least a decent chili
Chicken breast with a side of any carb really makes a decent meal

If you can get a slow cooker, then pulled pork is literally just:

- Put pork, Stock/Dr pepper/root beer, Tsp salt, tsp pepper, 6 tsp malt vineger, 6 tsp Worcestrshire sauce, low on 6 - 7 hrs.

Pull, eat.

I made chorizo burritos weekly in undergrad. Cook chorizo (the cheap stuff in tubes at walmart) forever until crispy, add diced potatoes too if you have them. Make burritos with canned refried beans with a small can of green chilies added, and some eggs if you want (or eat leftovers for breakfast with eggs), and cover in hot sauce. I actually still make them once in a blue moon for nostalgia, and they are pretty tasty

stay away from tenderloin, you want something with connective tissue (shoulder, picnic roast, etc). It's good on toast, good with baked beans or coleslaw (cabbage/carrots are also very cheap), put some hot sauce or jalapenos on there you can eat it plain

I sometimes make garlic bread myself.
Just pizza dough (flour, yeast, salt, pinch of sugar, oil, water) and when it's baked spread with butter and add garlic powder and some black pepper.

Filling, tasty and super cheap.

Student here. My food routine is muesli every morning (rolled oats, 1/4 grated apple, sliced banana), salad every lunch (salade nicoise with red potato, green beans, radishes, olives, spinach), and dinner is usually papet vaudois, a hotpot, something like that, potato-based with root vegetables and beans. Weekends are a bit more free, so I will make things like bannana crepes, or lentil soup.

The idea is to have breakfasts and lunches that take seconds to make and can be consumed without cooking, or have ingredients prepared the night before and consumed without reheating. Dinners are ideally things that can be put in the oven or on the stove and forgotten about for half an hour. Avoid carbs, especially sugar, as they will only make you more tired and sluggish later and ultimately cost you time and productivity.

Definitely find a crock pot, whether it be from goodwill or whatever, get some pinto beans or black beans, get some cheap salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and cumin powder, put them all together and come back in 8 hours to a decent meal with whatever addition.

>breakfast
toast or sandwiches. use butter/margarine, peanut butter, jam, honey.
eggs, on toast or not. easiest thing to cook is fried and hardboiled, followed by scrambled.
oats/oatmeal or cheap breakfast cereal with some fruit
>lunch
sandwiches again. stick to the same things as with breakfast.
eggs
cans of tuna are usually reasonably cheap.
>dinner
250 to 350g of meat (.5 to .75 of a pound). cheapest meats are almost always chicken drumsticks and wings, and minced beef.
chicken you can just roast in an oven if you have one. beef minced just turn into rissoles/burgers/meatloaf with some onions and breadcrumbs.
Compliment with cheaper prepared foods like sausages, frozen pizza, sausage rolls etc.
if you can stretch to add chicken thighs or breasts then you can make more chicken meals with stir fries, curries, kebab/taco stuff.
>to fill out any meal
rice
eggs
beans
potato
onions
carrots
apples
banana
yogurt
cheddar cheese blocks (not garbage processed cheese).
>Other stuff
salt, pepper, smoked paprika, dried oregano, dried basil, ground cumin, ground coriander would be the first spices/herbs I'd stock.
sugar, flour & yeast, learn to make bread.
rapeseed/sunflower oil, best combination of not being awful like other shitty oils without being expensive

Pork is as cheap as. About £8/kg in europoorean countries. One kg is about a weeks protein.

If you are that poor, buy potatoes then. ffs.

Or just get whole chicken: oil the outside, rub salt, pepper, garlic powder and cumin seeds on skin, roast in oven at 180c for 90 mins. One chicken is like 4- 5 euros. 2 chciken will feed you for a week.

Or just eat potatoes like the bog trotters.

Or grow your own sweet potato. Ppl used to do yhat during ww2. But srsly anon, even on neetbucks you can afford £20 - 25 a week on food whick is chickeb and pork territory.

Delicious rice - wash one cup rice until water runs clear. Put rice in pot and top up with 2 parts water by volume. Put a stock cube in the pot. Put 5 - 6 cloves or garlic in the pot. Cook the rice. walaaaa cheap delicious garlic rice. eat with soy sauce if poor. If really poor, its still delicious on its own.
