closed due to 'rona you mong, also I want to learn how to cook too

>neither of us can cook

Pro-tip: Hold food over a heat source, such as a "fire" or a "stovetop". Humans make objects called "pans" or "skillets", and we use these as vessels to heat or "cook" foods. When the food is "cooked", you'll know.

However if you really must persist then here's the recipe for a bacon stir fry

Put a frying pan on a stove top on medium low heat. Add a half teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, also known as about a thumb (2d area of your thumb). Dont let the oil smoke, thats too hot.

Slice bacon into pinky finger sized strips. Make a fistful.

Throw it in the pan and stir it a few times per minute so that it doesnt stick or burn.

Meanwhile, chop some green onions, maybe 3 fingers worth. Can also do a single garlic clove if desired. Throw those in.

Now get out your mushrooms while thats cooking. I prefer shitake but you do you. Cut the stems off because ew. Wash the mushrooms, theyre slimey and have dirt all over.

Chop them into small fingertip sized chunks. Throw them into the pan, which by now hopefully has a bit of oil to cover them.

Add a teaspoon of soy sauce, a teaspoon of spicy korean bbq sauce if you have it. stir it a bunch and let most of the water come out of the mushroom and bacon over the next 10 mins.

Let it cool down 7 mins in the bowl and add salt to taste that that time. Enjoy this recipe it works for basically anything

>>14771318
saved that, thanks boss

You need a big pot for this, but only a single hotplate.
Put some fat in the pot. Butter or oil, whatever you have. Get the pot hot.
Brown 1 pound of ground beef.
Add 1 onion, keep cooking til onion is a bit soft.
Add entire bag of coleslaw mix and stir.
Let it wilt down til half volume.
Salt and pepper to taste comes now.
At this point you can stir in almost any sort of salsa, tomato sauce, hot peppers etc.

Sort of a very lazy cabbage roll dish that I lived on for weeks at a time while in College.

>>14771328
thank you

put some chickpeas in a pan with oil, add sausage of choice, add spices of choice, turn heat off when cooked to desired texture and add some type of green herb
you cannot possibly fuck it up outside of burning the chickpeas, which takes a significant amount of work to do if they're canned. tastes damn good with cajun sausage and a generous amount of cayenne.

>>14771331
thanks for this

>>14771330
I read it again, so I need to clarify. "Add 1 CHOPPED onion" and "Let it wilt down til half volume - while stirring all the time."

If you like garlic or prefer sausage to the ground beef, well go for it. The one pot should feed 2 people.

>>14771347
i assumed it would be chopped, I'm not smart but I'm not retard ya know

>>14771345
Be sure to let the herbs wilt in the pan for a few minutes when you add them, stick the burner on the lowest setting and put a lid on. The bigger/less diced they are the longer they'll take to wilt. You don't want a mouthful of parsley no matter how much you like the flavor.

Black beans, rice and broccoli with mayo and hot sauce. Lived on it three meals a day for two years

>>14771351
Yeah sorry. I'm used to having to explain things to my sister. My bad, but i didn't want you to have a fail. I know how budgets are.

>>14771248
google it you fucking spastic

>>14771248
aside from basic things like just learning to fry meats on a skillet, surely you have a microwave, the hot tip is that those 99-cent frozen steam-in-bag vegetables are indispensable for the untrained young man trying to learn to feed himself. Green beans, broccoli florets, Broc/cauli/carrot blend, Mixed Veg, etc. whatever's to your taste, throwing one in the microwave while you make whatever else is a zero-effort cheap instant side dish that can help pad out a meal and just having something to accompany whatever-other-garbage can go a long way. Don't LITERALLY live off JUST frozen pizzas and boxed mac-n-cheese and ramen and horseshit.

Other than that just learn to fry a chicken breast in a skillet and sautee and onion and you're maybe 80% of the way there. Good luck in your baby-steps to self-sufficiency. No joke, they're the most important steps you can take.

You want to cook but come here? Literally google it. Faster and easier and you’ll get less of me calling you a retard too stupid for college if you can’t take care of yourself.

Buy smoked sausage and potatoes. Chop em all up in to thin sausage coins and little chunks of tater. Season and oil them. Throw em in an oven at uhh 15 -25 minutes? 350 degrees.

>>14771406
often times the google results are not nearly as "beginner friendly" or "budget-friendly" as they make themselves out to be. Furthermore, many of these dishes are out of reach for someone who just cooked a grilled cheese for dinner. Thanks for the recommendation

They are out of reach because you are illiterate. If you can’t read a recipe and follow instructions, you deserve to fail.

https://www.thesimpledollar.com/save-money/20-favorite-dirt-cheap-meals/

I literally googled “cheap college meals”

You may also want to google “how to cook chicken” if you’re this terrified of failure and learning how to do things without hand holding.

rice and beans.
1.) For quick rice, make minute rice in the microwave or something
1a.) If you have normal rice, put it in a pot, rinse it a couple of times, then put your pointer finger straight into the water. When your finger touches the rice, the water level should be up to your first knuckle. Heat on high, then when it's all bubbling, cover it with a lid and put on low or simmer. Cook for like 45-55 minutes or until all the water is absorbed by the rice.

2.) If you want to add some veggies and flavor to the mix, sautee some onions and garlic in a little oil, and then add whatever veggies you want after. Once they're about cooked, add beans
3.)Pour entire can of beans (liquid included, but I drain a little bit of it) into the pan or pot (whatever can hold it)
4.)Add whatever sounds good to you like any spices or sauces
5.) When it's heated and all the flavors are mixed in, you're done. I then just throw the beans into the rice pot and eat it with a spoon. If you make the beans the way you like them it's really good.
For breakfast
A) I just buy old fashioned oats, cook them how they say on the box, then I dice a whole apple and throw it in because eating plain oatmeal is gross. I don't add sugar cuz I try to avoid that.
B)I make two pieces of toast, spread some peanut butter on it, then slice up half a banana and spread out the slices on the peanut butter. Pretty delicious breakfast.
C)Scrambled eggs and toast. Butter up a pan then crack some eggs in there and whisk em around until they're not super runny. Put on toast


Roasted potatoes
1.) Chop up some potatoes into like quarters or something bite-sized
2.)toss them with minced garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and whatever spices you like until they're well covered with oil and spices
3.) oil up a baking sheet and dump the potatoes onto it
4.) oven to 350 and cook for 30 minutes, flip them, then 30 more minutes or until desired crispiness.

literacy =/ mechanical skill, I can pan sear meats relatively alright, but cheap meals that allow me to work with a limited arsenal of cookware/mechanical skill are often hard to find. You came into a thread that you didn't like and are finding something you don't like, more at 11

Buy broth and rice. Cook rice in the brother. Cheap, easy, tasty, nutritious. Need more? Get some beans or a meat to add. Canned chicken maybe, then use chicken broth of bullion.

Can't cook rice? get a rice cooker. Get your parents to buy you one. It's the ultimate dorm room food thing. You can use it to steam things too.

For lunches: buy summer sausage, crackers, and sliced cheese. You have adult lunchables.

>>14771444

I came in to this thread expecting a college age man to not be such a pussy. Can you wipe your ass on your own or do you need me to get a recipe for that too? Cooking is not difficult in the slightest.
Buy a knife and a skillet and a spatula and a pot and a stirring utensil. You are now equipped for over 80% of all recipes on the internet.
Seriously, man. Just try stuff. I can’t imagine you’re seriously living on like a dollar a day to eat or something. Get a job or get more hours or get more loans/grants/scholarships.

Eggs in the morning, salt and pepper optional
Protein smoothie for lunch, ice - frozen fruit (i use blackberries, cherries, blueberries and strawberries) frozen banana (required regardless of other fruits), vannila whey isolate protein powder, pinch of cinnamon, plain greek yogurt
More eggs for supper with steamed vegetables
Some canned soup if I'm running a sodium deficit or still hungry
The protein smoothie is by far the most expensive part of this diet but its so filling and a single bag of frozen fruit will last you at least a week, and the protein powder will last months
If you want to go extremely cheapo mode just start cooking some rice instead for supper and have the eggs for lunch
You can also make your own soups but im far lazier than I am cheap

A roasted chicken over root vegetables: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6bToj3Tj94

I like to cut up a LOT more veggies than he does, such as onion, carrots, celery, parsnips (great flavor in this application), garlic, and potatoes. Chunk up all of the veggies, put them into a large baking dish, toss with a small amount of oil (chicken fat will drip down onto them), salt, pepper, maybe some thyme or other herbs.

It takes a little while to cut all that up, but it's basically foolproof and fucking delicious. Save the chicken bones and make chicken stock with it. If you've never had real stock in a soup before it's definitely worth it. I freeze mine for later.

>>14771551

>>14771248
Simple... Home made sourdough bread. (flour is cheap as fuck, you just need that and a food scale, the rest you look it up online)
Coffee makes you less hungry so keep that in mind everytime you dont have to eat.
And finally just buy cheap and basic produce (apples, carrots, POTATOS DONT FORGET ABOUT POTATOS) and eat an egg a day to keep things running. As spices and other stuff you just need salt, pepper and butter or olive oil.

You learn to cook by fucking cooking, m8.
Find simple things you want to make and start making them. Scramble some eggs, stir fry some rice veggies and beef.
It seems daunting because you haven't done it. Just start doing it and you'll pick it up, and feel stupid for making a big deal out of it.

>>14772892
Probably. DESU i never cook chicken breaded, because it's messier than covering with spices and breading absorbs oil like a sponge.

Here's an easy favorite of mine I literally just got finished making, it's more breakfast themed but you can make it whenever it's not like food has a schedule:
>Pretty much buy any kind of meat of your choice like ground beef, pork or chicken. Even canned Chicken or tuna would work if that's your thing. Whatever you like or is cheapest (a lot of stores will mkr down close dated meats a couple bucks so that's always a great choice if you know you're going to be cooking in the enxt day or so. My personal favorite is spiced ground sausage.
>Chop and onion and let it brown in a pan with some butter or oil of your choice, throq in the meat and let it brown.
>Once the meat is browned crack in 3 or 4 eggs, or however many tyou want for several servings or people.
>Stir it around and let the eggs scramble,while soaking up all the juices. Add seasonings of your choice or cheese if the budget calls for it. Cooked rice isn't a bad idea either. Pretty much anything to fluff it up.
That's pretty much it. The ingredients are really up to your discretion or preference. I just used a sausage I diced up and some garlic, and added some shredded pepperjack at the egg phase. I've also used a couple slices of bacon, took them out and chopped them up while the egg cooked in the grease with everything else, then added back in. Go nuts, or don't. I don't care.

>>14773264
This is what happens when I don't proofread my posts and type too fast. Sorry for the errors but you get the gist. It's essentially a giant scramble skillet.

Don't buy salad dressing. One part vinegar to three parts oil is all you need. Can add honey for sweetness, lemon juice for brightness, and always salt your salads!

Balsamic vinegar + olive oil + honey + mustard + lemon juice goes really well on baby arugula

Apple cider vinegar + sesame oil + honey goes really well on a red cabbage and apple salad. Sprinkle some celery seed on it as well.

Taste your food as you make it

Save your vegetable trimmings in a gallon bag in your freezer and use them to make vegetable broth (google this, my veggie broth is usually onion, garlic, carrot, celery, parsley, mushroom)

In a big pot, cook a chopped up onion and some carrot for TEN minutes to caramelize it really well. Add some garlic for a couple minutes, as well as some curry powder and cumin. If you like spice, add a chopped serrano at this point. Throw in some dry red lentils and cover with vegetable broth. Cook for a while, keeping the lentils hydrated until they reach the texture you desire. Throw in a whole bunch of spinach. Make a big portion and when you freeze it, put it in a gallon ziploc bag and press it as flat as possible. Cuts down on "freezer taste"

Here's an extremely basic recipe for marinara sauce. I recommend using more seasoning than the recipe calls for, as well as throwing in a can of tomato paste. If you double the recipe, you could stretch it out for 3-4 days worth of meals for two people. Just remember that you're filling up on the pasta, not the sauce.
https://www.thespruceeats.com/simple-marinara-tomato-sauce-recipe-3377653

Another basic recipe that can last a while is chili. You can also eat it with pasta, put it on hot dogs, baked potatoes, etc.
https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/13329/quick-chili-i/

These are two I recommend to start with because they both give a lot of leftovers for quick easy meals.

Op baked ziti easiest thing ever,
1 box 1lb ziti pasta
1lb shredded mozzarella cheese
32oz ricotta cheese
2 eggs
2 jars pasta sauce of your liking I use vodka sauce
Optional italian sausage I use the spicy one
Cook pasta to aldente it means soft but still a little hardness to the pasta
Mix half the mozzarella and all the ricotta and 2 eggs and 1 jar of sauce in a bowl add the drained pasta if you use the sausage cook it first then add to this mix it all together, put in a 11x14 glass baking dish, if it looks dry you can add a little of the second jar sprinkle the rest of the mozzarella on top, bake at 350 for 45 mins or until brown.
Last step enjoy, and if you cut it into squares you can put them in ziploc bags and freeze them for later dinners. Hope this helps op it's a cheap meal and when I'm broke it costs maybe like 5 bucks to make without the sausage.

>>14771248
You shouldn't be in college if you can't do something as simple as googling some fucking recipes. Seriously mate it's not hard unless you have legit literacy problems.
For me though, tuna patties was a good one. Pretty simple, and quick. Add rice and you have a decent meal. Here's a recipe for you.
https://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/tuna_patties/

Another cheap one was pasta, a cheap jar of sauce and a mattesons sausage. I'm britbong though so don't know what the american one is. You could make the sauce yourself but I doubt you will. Trust bruv it's easy just look and you'll be good. The jars of sauce I would get were about 30 pence, proper cheap tesco stuff because budget was tight. If you can find cheap meat like chicken use that instead of your sausage. Cut open chicken to check if it's cooked proper. If it's pink get her a drink if its white give it a bite.

>>14771248
Hey, student here.
What you're gonna want to do is get cooking essentials such as a wok and rice cooker. A stock pot helps too.
Buy whole meat (e.g. whole chicken) and save the bones to make stock which can fill out your soups/stews/gravy. Also look into local laws for hunting. Squirrel, rabbit, and small ruminants make for a cheap and available food source.
Do not fear fat. Fat is your friend. Fear sugar. Purchase butter or, if poor, cream which you can make into butter. A good neutral oil for multiple use is also essential. Extra virgin olive oil and sesame oil are good additions.
Mirepoix, mirepoix, mirepoix. Dunno how many times I have to say it but if it's a euro recipe, it almost definitely needs mirepoix.
Save up and invest in a flavour pairing guide. Asian supermarkets (yellow and brown) stock a wide variety of spices (and the all-essential rice) to make your food palatable. These plus the unique combinations recommended by a flavour pairing guide can boost your cooking to an adequate level.
Bread is a fucking ripoff. Make sourdough at home you fucking lazy pussy. If you have no oven then make roti at home you fucking lazy pussy. Stop buying bread from supermarkets.
Also if you haven't started making fermented foods (kimchi, sauerkraut, etc.) you are missing out on a low-effort nutritional goldmine, buddy.

-Fry onions, garlic and mushrooms in the remaining fat until softened
--Add a teaspoon of paprika and a scattering of parsley (dried is aight, but fresh is better)
-Throw in a couple tablespoons of creme fraiche and about half a cup of beef stock
-Return the beef to the pan and leave to simmer for a few minutes

Go for some easy pasta recipes and make sure you follow the recipe as much as you can. Vegetable stir fry is easy as hell. Garlic butter steak literally takes 20 min at the absolute max. If youre asian (like me) and have abundant cooked rice at all times, you can make a ghetto ass fried rice with only onions, garlic, and bacon. Just pick easy shit with not too much prep that will take you less than 30 min and cook that for dinner instead of eating cup ramen or eating out.

Just make sure you follow the recipes and your food will come out edible

Luckily I came across a nightmare meal and haven't really ordered out since. Thought I'd have some nice Thai food; garlic rice, Beef noodles, and stirfried veggies with chicken.

When i Got it I almost had to puke after a few mouthfulls beacause EVERYTHING was fucking submerged in oil! "light stir fry"? how about so much oil it put the US to shame. The rice tasted okay but it was SO FKING OILY. one of the few meals I had to throw out becaus e it was "inedible".

>chuck potatoes in a pan of water and the rest of your veg in a seperate pan of water

>when they're done, drain then leave them out
>PAN ON
>little oil heat up in pan
>when pans hot, chuck steak in
>cook however long you preffer, I seriously hope you know at least different steak levels
>flip over, do it again
>when it's almost done, chuck veggies in pan, leave then for about a minute for little crunch
>take it all out when you're done, plate it up
>add sauce if you used it
That's what you should be doing if you're out getting deer steaks. Have you ever tried cooking a steak before you wandered over here? You live with your brother too so I still fail to see how you cant figure out how to google simple recipes and cook, but can get yourselves some deer. Who gets the steaks out ready to eat for you? You've got 2 brain cells between you two so I suggest you start rubbing them together; fuck your parents would be disappointed.

Students are usually "poor" because they spend it all drinking and shit; Some have jobs and make okayish money, usually part time. Most students don't know what poor really is, they just like the excuse to ignore their sustenance problems. Most don't have an idea or lose it during college then fuck up and spend years in retail or something.

there are an infinite amount of resources on the internet if you would just use your fingers to type your query into a search bar instead of using them to ask to be spoonfed like a little babboo

Not him, but that was a thing in USSR. After college you was forced to work for like three years in assigned place.

I'm assuming you were assigned to a place related to the degree you're getting, then you have the experience to move to another place. Is that so you can pay back whatever you owe to the government or for a different reason?

Learn to make a passable spaghetti.

Pound of ground beef (frozen 80/20; thaw 24h in fridge... just let it sit)
Brown/crumble in skillet
Dump in can of sketti sauce
Enhance with herbs if you're not completely poor
Stir/simmer

Cook pound of pasta
Drain (usually 1 minute less than it says on the box is right; residual heat/sauce finishing)
Combine with sauce

Probably around $7 + 25 minutes

Wash your dishes promptly afterwards. It doesn't save time or effort to wait to cleanup.
