Pasta!!

In-depth please👀💜

Any kind, pasta is cheap, making sauce is cheap and easy, easily frozen, and fills you up easily!

Freeze the pasta or sauce?

You can make the pasta with the sauce and freeze it for a while. I do it often

Mindblown 🤯

Rice/beans/vegetables (pick your sauce)

Pasta! With whatever you have left in the cupboard…

Any certain pasta recipe, that’s your personal favourite?

All depends what I had. Fresh tomatoes blended with garlic and onion and some fresh basil with a dash of olive oil always worked when stirred into the pasta. Super cheap, super basic…

Sounds tastyyy, damn, should’ve asked this question long time ago💜🫶

We’re talking cheap here. Another was noodles. Don’t just boil them in the crappy sachet they come with! Optimise it. Brown off some roughy cut onions, add some peas and/or some rough-cut veg and even some tuna and some soya sauce. Then add half the sachet (you don’t need all of it now) and then the boiled water and add the noodles - makes a kind of wanton/ramen kind of dish…

Damn, you’ve got some great recommendations buddy💜 Thank you so much🫶

Beans ain’t it. Rice, chicken and vegetables stir-fry goes hard though💜🫶

Dried beans are SO cheap. And you can get a tiny 2 cup rice cooker for about $20 (plus it saves space!)

Huh? Dried beans?

Cheaper than chicken but … to each their own🤙

I’m really sensitive to food texture, and beans just really aren’t it in that department.🫶

Well, I mean don’t eat them without cooking 😅

Rice, egg and vegetables 🥦 🥕 …

Loving it💜🫶 One of my favourite go-to stir-fry recipes at the moment. With chicken and cajun it’s amazing,

That’s pretty much all I can make hahaha 😝

Ground beef and butter.

If you’re rich, add eggs 😛 (I like runny eggs over the beef)

Huhh? First time I’ve ever heard about such a combo👀 You sure?

Hahah well I’m only a few weeks into the carnivore diet but it’s as cheap as a meat dish can get. And being meat, it’s delicious 😋

Damn, sounds great.

I’ve never ever really had a diet or even counted calories.

My diet plan as it stands is just “vibes”

No need to count calories when you’re eating a proper human diet. I’ve been doing it for less than a month and lost almost 15 pounds. Eating as much meat and fat as my heart desires. Took a bit to get through the mental hurdles but don’t see myself going back.

Damn, 15 pounds in less than a month. What an absolute chad💜💜💜

Sounds absolutely amazing🫶

Nongshim Ramen but poach an egg or 2 in the microwave to add in to make it a meal. Can also add in onion, corn mushrooms, bock choy etc

Never poached an egg in my life. Sounds really tempting 🫶 👀👀

Easy way is just fill a bowl with water crack an egg of 2 into the water microwave for about 2 mins. Longer if more than 1 egg.

Ohh, that’s really simple, I’ll absolutely try that out💜🫶

Cheap and delicious just gotta get the food Japanese ramen noodles from the Asian or international food isle not Mr Noodle or any of that

Good*

I’ve no idea, what defines as “good noodles” tbh

Just buy the ones with Japanese symbols on the packaging
