My gf and I are poor college students. Pretty much the only thing she eats is rice and cheese. Not even the good kind, it's Uncle Ben's instant rice and Walmart brand shredded cheese. It fucking smells and it's really starting to get to me. Any ideas on how to make it better?

Potatoes with skins are nearly a nutritionally complete meal all by themselves. Add a little flavor with salt, butter, or sour cream and some cheap protein like boiled eggs and you can keep going for a long time without feeling malnourished. When you can, eat some green vegetables like broccoli.

That's depressing, college students are usually not poverty stricken, most unis require a meal plan where you have to pay a crazy amount for cafeteria food. Are you sure it's not because of some OCD thing? Rice and cheese is an extremely autistic dish. Rice and beans/curry doesn't cost any more and tastes way better.

So if you have a rice cooker im assuming it came with a plastic insert that allows you to steam vegetables at the same time as cooking the rice

>thinly sliced carrots
for it being a part of your "cultural norm" you clearly have no idea how to use it. Even at my worst I could still do better than fucking rice and cheese lmfao.

here is my real advice and this is what I like to do. people donate cookbooks all the time to places like value village and shit. go to value village or something similar, chances are they have a literal WALL of cookbooks. Ive seen multiple "broke student guide to cooking" esque books. go for the recipes in the books that use lots of beans because they have excellent nutritional value. Follow the instructions in the book to the finest detail, do not deviate, I have made the mistake of eyeballing and shit before when I didn't know better and it ruined the food. Also breakfast for dinner, as in oats and a cut up apple or something.

going vegan because it's trendy when you literally cannot sustain it diet wise is extremely low IQ and opening the doors to developing some brain diseases in the future. What's stopping you from providing more for both of yourselves anon?

>> No.16318240

>>16318216
Crude oil is the remnants of all sorts of biomatter, which means statistically its mostly the remnants of plants. That said, no plastic manufacturers differentiate between crude oil derived from ancient plants and crude oil derived from ancient animals (if it's even possible to do so), so there maybe trace animal products in your plastic - enough to classify them as non-vegan, even if a vanishingly small amount is actually from dinosaurs.

Honestly getting a rice cooker and breaking up with this twat will help you a lot financially and psychologically.

I remember the days of being poor in college. A 40lb sack of rice a 15L jug of soy sauce and pepper packets stolen from A&W. One time I found some change on the street and went to 7/11 and got one of their shitty hotdogs and just filled the entire container with chili and cheese sauce. Good times.

Easy buy a instant pot and cook your own food.

Even though most people don't realize this, but most college students qualify for food stamps. It sounds like you should and your girlfriend should get some. With nutrition like you currently have, it very unlikely that either one of you will make it through the 4 years of college from a health perspective.

SHIT
This is what I used to eat in high school
I'd microwave semi real sliced cheese on top of rice, I'd have one slice of cheese in the middle and one on top
Then I'd get the fake dried parmasan cheese and spread it on top of the top slice
Microwave for 3 mins and it's great
