[QUESTION] what's good recipes or ideas for someone who is extremely poor and rarely can't buy much but potatoes
Watching mythical kitchen about hash browns and wondering if anybody have any ideas on how to make potatoes into other things that are extremely cheap. I usually have only potatoes and margarine at last 2 weeks before I get food stamps because it isn't enough to cover basic food things.
Does anybody know any good ideas or recipes or something that does not require a lot of other one time ingredients? That's really cheap on quantities, like spices, where it can last a while with it being really inexpensive.
Things I have is absolutely basic cooking skills and cooking appliances. Microwave oven and stove. I don't have much of anything because and can't afford anything
Buy a bag of dried lentils, very cheap and highly nutritious with 25% protein.
I use this recipe all the time. If you don’t have an instapot they can boiled on top of the stove, just takes a bit longer (you can soak a cup of lentils overnight in water to speed up cooking time). Goes wonderful on top of a baked potato
