God damn those eggs are awful.

>>11167811
Enjoy cleaning your pans and spatulas, dish-slave.

>>11167815
It doesn't matter what device you used to cook them. Those eggs are indefensible.

>>11167818
They're poached/over hard. Not everyone has to eat over easy....

>>11167800
you fucks are so annoying.
he wants a meal that he can buy with his current paycheck, not bulk values

>>11167824
I am the OP, dickhead. I made the 1st post.

>>11167825
stop pretending to be poor, then

>>11167827
What if I want to eat 6 meals a day? Or a wealth of other reasons behind wanting to budget my meals?

>>11167832
being poor is a choice. Budget, educate, and better yourself

>>11167800
I'm guessing this doesn't include the $5 spent on pepper?

>>11167843
...go away.
>>11167867
Kek...it's healthy!

>>11167796
Live in top-tier 3rd world cunts like Malaysia and Singapore. Food is cheap :>

Post budget meals greater than $5?

Sleep is the poor man's dinner

>>11167796
Nearly every meal. Every full meal I cook costs under $5 and makes 2-3 portions which I freeze for lunch/dinner another day.
When I go full hardcore money saving jew mode I can live on $1.50 a day if I have to, eating veggies, cheap nasty meat rice and pasta. Not the tastiest though.

Don't forget the fire sauce.

Such as?

>>11167981
lurk moar faggot, not spoonfeeding you

Buy a 10 pound bag of chicken leg quarters, you can get them for less than a dollar a pound. Chicken leg quarters are good for a number of recipes, I usually remove the skin and season them before grilling them. A meal with a chicken leg quarter + broccoli and a baked potato would easily be under $5.

>>11167801
underrated.

these threads are dumb because if you really wanted to go full austerity you buy and cook in bulk to maximize the savings, then weigh out one serving to determine if it is less than $5

>>11168086
Why the fuck did you even post here.
>>11167920
C'mon dawg. You need to relearn the basics of math.
>>11168149
It's not as easy as you think, and I'm starting to doubt any of you live outside of your parent's home. You can't always buy in bulk because of expiration.

>>11167796
For me, it's the McChicken, the best value fast food sandwich.

>>11169610
yup 2 mcchickens and a sweet tea are my go to meal when i want to save some money

>>11167796

Alternate between layers of sliced potatoes and sliced of corned beef + onions with generous amounts of sage. Once you run out of ingredients, fill up to the top layer of potatoes with a thin gravy or strong stock.

Cover with tin foil, bake for an hour, uncover, bake again until all the lquid has soaked into the potatoes, top layer should be crisp

have a freezer

>>11169638
Hmm. Thanks.
>>11169833
You have just alienated 100000 recipes.

>You have just alienated 100000 recipes.
what recipes don't allow dried/frozen foods

OP, you really need to lurk for several years before posting.

Assuming you don't mind buying your protein in bulk and freezing it there's really no limit.
Because I'm currently living in excess, I'll usually have a whole pork chop, sliced and burned in the bottom of a pot. Throw in overpriced noodles for a nice rich noodle soup/ramen. An egg is like, $0.10. Rice is also super good if you want something drier. Make a bag of frozen vegatables. The shit that steams. Mix with pepper and butter.
$2-3 a serving?

Why the fuck did you even post here? Use the archives to answer your shitty questions rather than making another thread that'll devolve into politics and fast food
