Cheapest meals thread?

Post some cheap, nice tasting recipes, especially if they're your own creation!

I like to make instant chicken noodles and then at the end melt loads of cheese into them, delicous and sticky as FUCK

Convenience foods and cheese aren't cheap. Did you mean to say something like, "lazy meals that someone who can't cook and has low standards can enjoy"?

>> No.7830275

>>7830268
A bit of both I guess, I'm pretty new to cooking for myself (20 now) and it's not going well.

Noodles are cheap though? 20 pence a pack.

Leek anything soup is delicious, except maybe chocolate.

go to the store, get a big bag of whatever variety of beans you enjoy the most, I personally go for chickpeas and kidney beans, and a big bag of preferably brown rice, and whatever spices you want, which is important because you'll be eating a lot of rice and beans and it had better taste good. dirt cheap and very healthy for you, soak the beans overnight with some salt in the water, then cook them the next day however you want, I suggest currys for chickpeas and Mexican spices for kidney beans

I was being somewhat facetious. However, hot chocolate is basically just chocolate soup. I wonder if I could make a chocolate mornay............ with cream cheese.

Pastas with home made sauces

Pine nuts, basil olive oil salt and peper, can make a decent batch
