been trying to save cash eating cooked a cup of rice with 2 eggs in the rice cooker and added ketchup and hot sauce but it just tastes so bland, is a cup a lot of rice to make at a time?

I guess I could serve it with soup or something

what's your food budget. Give me something to work with, you gimp

IDK I'd prefer to keep it 3 or 4 bucks per meal.

Just going off my gut, adding a $1 cup of store brand beans would have probably made the rice taste not as dry and add more fiber

mix soy sauce, vinegar, and brown sugar in a pan to make a cheap sweet and sour sauce. if you already have eggs and rice you honestly may as well make fried rice though.

A cup of rice is like 200 calories, just add spices

Should I mix them up before I add water?

No just pepper, does salt help it taste better?

Add umami.

It is not. You can stir fry the leftovers the next day

salt improves the taste and makes it cook better

you could easily do fried rice for that budget, start with some not-too expensive meat, throw in half an onion, let it heat for a while, then add the rice and eggs. meal and two leftovers. green onions if you're fancy, peas if you're lazy.
