What's your Poor Man's Food?

You realize, of course, that this thread is in DIRECT COMPETITION with the "Weight Loss Goals and Challenges" Thread, don't you?

 

Chickens thighs are cheap as hell, tons of protein(good for muscle gain), and my go to dinner. Maybe not good for weight loss exactly but good for body fat percent reduction

 

white sticky style rice in a bowl... half buttered with coarse sea salt and pepper, other half semi-covered in Sriracha and a bit of soy sauce.

 

I believe Gallagher asked the all-important question; "Why do hot dogs come in packs of 8, and hot dog buns in packs of 10?"

 

Peanut butter spread on a tortilla and rolled up like a taquito .

 

Saw Bar S 8 packs for 49 cents at Cash & Carry the other day... was tempting but they do taste like ass these days.

 

Chicken ramen, or nature vallet bars is what i bring to work since they are cheap and no prep involved, that and they keep me full. 6 bar packs in a box i have 3 breaks a day so 1 2.98 box feeds me for 2 days at work. 6 bucks for my 4 day work week

 

Almost as bad as those Fluorescent Red Hot Dogs i used to see in the cheap grocery stores.
I think the reason Bar S hot dogs taste like ass is that's the part of the cow/pig/chicken they use to make them!

 

Instant mashed potatoes mixed with ramen. Lots of hot sauce.

 

That and instant idahoian potatos. Just run the hot water no need to microwave them.. that makes the electric bill go up

 

Tapatio on everything?
Cholula when you come into some cash...

 

They sometimes have crunchy things in them. A hot dog does not have crunchy insides.

 

Russian stores. Or really anywhere that has canned meats, but I've oddly found the Russian varieties to have the least amount of processed junk in it. Mostly it's just meat cooked in its own fat and salted.

 

FTFY

 

Swap out the mustard for some Tabasco

 

Kind of on a diet right now basically put some crunchy peanut butter between two pieces of bread and fry it up just like a grilled cheese . Then rain down the syrup! Milk is a must .

 

That's great I actually remember that one .

 

Brown 1 lb. ground beef in a large, oven-proof saucepan. Add 1 can condensed vegetable soup and stir. Top with instant mashed potatoes or Jiffy dough mix (in the box). Bake until top is crispy. Poor man's shepherd's pie.

 

White bread or English muffin lightly toasted. Butter the inside of each slice and add two pieces of Kraft American cheese. AKA ghetto grilled cheese.
