    And maybe she can't go grocery shopping "until later" because she's working 3 jobs to repay her quarter million student loans, while living in a tiny apartment and being a-$200-rent-increase away from homelessness. But who cares, her struggle doesn't look like yours so it ain't valid, right?

    The only seasoning she should add to her pasta water is salt 😭 So much is wasted when you drain the water because it hardly sticks to the pasta. Add everything else to the meat, sauce, or bare pasta after you strained it Edit: This comment blew up WOAH But I stand by what I said. I may be an Americanized Italian but I know you only add salt to your pasta water. Then you take some of that pasta water to add to your sauce AND THAT'S when you add all the spices. I also season my meat but it's important to taste through all of this because you could overseason once the pasta water, sauce, and meat come together before topping the noodles.

Bulk bags of rice and beans and dry pasta last for so long and are cheaper in the long run. The uncle ben’s rice is pretty expensive too if you continually buy it for every meal compared to bulk rice.

    Did anyone else’s family make “Beenies and Weenies”? Literally the cheapest hotdogs they could buy along with whatever baked beans were on sale/cheap. I actually LOVED it and haven’t had it in a long time. I’ve been incredibly blessed to not have to have sleep for dinner/breakfast. I’ve had some food that wasn’t the best, but I have been EXTREMELY lucky.

    Corned beef used to be a struggle meal until 1 small tin got more expensive than 1 pound of chicken. I haven’t had it in a while cause I feel like if I’m going to buy that, I might as well get some chicken or turkey or even beef. I’m Jamaican tho. So not sure what it’s like in your country.

    My struggle meal is Spaghetti, chicken noodle, or potato soup. Lol Make a big pot of it with cheap ingredients, freeze leftovers, eat for a week. Can also just store the leftovers but my mom always froze them. To me, anything you can make that is filling and will cover multiple meals is good. As a plus, all the meals can be made for under $10.

    My favorite struggle meal was always pinto beans made from dried beans in the cupboard (because of course you always have those around in case Times got lean) with hot water cornbread and rice. If I had some ham hocks in the freezer That was even better. If not, I just used fat from leftover bacon grease. I can thank my grandmother for my depression era recipes

    My struggle meal was basically two. The first it’s maze meal ( Iv had it in the uk and in uni but it’s an African thing) ( that’s what it’s called in the west) made into a sort of grits way. But it’s sweet and soupy. You add milk, butter if u had it and some sugar. Best thing ever in the morning. U let it go around the sides of the bowl using a spoon and blow. This cools it down as it’s doesn’t cool fast. Then u just scoop up the ring around the bowl. In the uk, it was ever bake beans on toast or something my mum made. It was semi cooked baby potatoes and egg fried with soy sauce. It’s so good and it’s definitely something I made continuing into uni. Also one of my biggest childhood memories ( and even now, I know eggs are a lot rn but I get them off fathers hens).
