What are /ck/'s favorite struggle meals?
Post them here.
I am having money problems for the first time in a while and I need to resort to struggle meals.
I've been making rice and beans and I'm just tearing through my 50lb bag of white rice and my canned beans.
Like I said, I it's been a while since I've been totally broke, so I've got pretty much any seasoning or sauce that I need.
Cookwear/ Equipment
>any pot or pan I could need
>slow cooker
>instant pot/ "express cooker" (purchased years after)
>decent knife set
>kitchen aid (x2)
>grain mill attachment
>pasta attachment
>juicer attachment
>a fucking fondue pot (this is fundamentally retarded to list, but bonus points if you can figure out a struggle fondue)
>a cheese grater (listed because some people don't have one and block cheese is cheaper. I realize cheese shouldn't really be on this list, but I love the stuff)
In my pantry there is some basic stuff that I've stockpiled
>aforementioned 50elbow bag of rice
>baking flower and sugar
>about 150 packs of ramen that I will never touch under normal circumstances
>some potatoes (need to buy more)
>4.5 28oz jars of crunchy peanut butter
>10elbow bag of pancake mix
>27 boxes of assorted pasta, about half is penne
>about 84 packets of pre-seasoned oatmeal, various flavors
>2 jars of mayo
>breadcrumbs (panko and italian)
>beans (dried kidney, lentil, and lima)
>a lot of fucking canola oil (I don't usually fry stuff but am open to it. Grease disposal at home is a pain to me)
>hella eggs (fridge)
In addition to this, I do have a little bit of expendable cash to spend on groceries. Chicken breast is often buy one get one where I am.
While I am well aware that I could survive off this shit alone for pure calories, but I am looking to the creative side of /ck/ to help me find a way to make this taste good. I need a few good pasta recipies, I have too much fucking pasta.
tl;dr I am about to be broke and have some shit to burn through.
