My life has fallen apart because of Trump/Musk taking my job and the American economy becoming a dumpster fire.
I have turned to frozen margarita pizzas as a source of nutrition. To spruce up my pies I chop up spinach, mix in a can of diced green chilies, and season with whatever I have on hand. If I have an extra bag of mozzarella I throw some of that in there too. I let it sit for five or so minutes then spread that on top of the pizza. I add five to ten extra minutes to the baking time.
Got any cheap and fast cooking tips along those lines?

Hoover Stew: Elbow macaroni, can of corn, can of diced tomatoes, sausage/hotdog. I’d start looking up depression era foods and learning how to cook. It stretches your dollars further.
A lot of food history is making the best out of what you got and when you look around there are some incredible depression era and post war dishes from all over the world.
Like it can be amazing what you can make with basic ingredients that can taste good that some ancestor from a different world figured out with what scraps they had laying around. A bunch of my favorite dishes are like that. Okonomiyaki especially so.
