This is a place to share ways to eat inexpensively - whether that's with recipes, finding coupons, or preservation techniques like freezing or pickling.

PLEASE NOTE: What is considered "healthy" or "cheap"? This will differ for every person. Please take this into consideration when reading and commenting.

All nutrition suggestions/advice should be taken with a grain of salt, as it's best to consult with a medical professional and/or reflect on your own personal eating habits and budget prior to taking advice from friendly strangers on the internet.

Diet- or budget-shaming will not be tolerated. Some people may prefer organic food, others may have food intolerances, some may be vegan, vegetarian, or keto.

Bottom line: be kind, considerate, and aware of advice from strangers on the internet.

Looking for easy, cheap, and tasty recipes (lemm.ee)

I hate cooking. And what is more, I hate cleaning up after cooking. Pizza was my go to. I would buy pre made dough and whatever toppings suited my fancy, it was cheap and delicious and only needed one pan. But it made me gain weight.

So I'm looking for a healthier alternative. Something I can cheaply and easily make, that tastes good, and only uses one dish.

Soup!

Brown veggies/proteins in the pot, deglaze, add spices, water, stock, thickener, drop in any dumplings and let it sit and simmer. You can freeze some of it, depending on how much you care about texture.

You’ll find all sorts of soups for every occasion bouncing around the Internet.
