Internet nerds teaching fellow nerds how to cook at home, and make higher-quality food than garbage in a wrapper or a box they're currently wasting money on. In our age of hyperinflation, shrinkflation, and general economic collapse, knowing how to cook at home is more vital than ever.
Share recipes, cooking guides, shopping and savings tips, and let's help our fellow nerds save some mother-freaking money. Feel free to vent about skyrocketing food prices here too. Share evidence of hyperinflation, shrinkflation, etc. when you come across it.
RULES:
- No spam, porn, off-topic content, hate speech, harassment, bootlicking
- No trolling or obvious troll bait
- Don't make me make more rules

Cook your choice of something like rice, Quinoa or barely. Maybe dice half an onion and toss it in as well. Bonus points for switching 1/4 of the water for veg stock. When it's done cooking, through in some canned beans and hot sauce. Mix. Serve in tortillas as a taco. Bonus points for grated cheese, salsa, and/or avocado in the taco as well.
One pan. Lots of protein and fiber. $4 for multiple meals.
Ooh, you know what's great with that? Homebrew salsa.
Just throw a jalapeno pepper, two small tomatoes, and a small onion into a food processor. Then, put in salt, pepper and garlic powder, and you have salsa that is better than the $5 garbage in the jar. And a lot of it.
