Cheese Pasta

Step 1: Boil pasta till cooked.

Step 2: Grate handful of cheddar cheese.

Step 3: Cut a slice of butter and rub it around in a bowl till the bowl is completely covered.

Step 4: Drain pasta then dump in bowl.

Step 5: Dump cheese in bowl.

Step 6: Cover top of the bowl with a plate then shake away

Step 7: Microwave for a minute.

Probably one of the most unhealthy foods ever, but still goddamn delicious.

But that was like thirty dollars, that's not struggle food, that's just stupid food.

That looks like a pretty extravagant meal to me.

 

[rpmurphy]

White rice in some water with furikake is the classic one for me.

If anybody wants to see some crazy-ass struggle foods, watch JK-Meshi.

 

[Highwind]

Fucking hell!

 

[akira28]

this hurts me emotionally, lol

 

[GKSilKamina]

Where's that picture of the piece of bread with the ice cubes on it?

As far as my real answer goes, some toast and a cup of broth.

 

[Kisaya]

Ramen noodles I guess :/

 

[bluethree]

That looks like a pretty extravagant meal to me.

joke backfire I guess

anyway serious answer - I quite like instant noodles, especially with some cheap meat or vegetables mixed in.

Please tell me they actually ate the paper chicken.

 

[doop_]

I had this today.

 

[akira28]

1 half cup dry cereal
2.4oz of cheddar cheese
eat.

its not exactly a favorite, or nutritious or comforting or anything other than quick and available.

 

[PrivateWHudson]

Mayo and Tomato sandwich with a good helping of salt and pepper.

 

[Gouty]

Spaghettios with franks & franks hot sauce

that's not a struggle food

 

[Makai]

1 half cup dry cereal
2.4oz of cheddar cheese

Nooooooo

 

[ElTorro]

Serious answer: when I forgot to buy groceries, one thing that I can always do quickly is hummus or pasta olio e aglio.

 

[mmazurkiewicz]

Mayo and Tomato sandwich with a good helping of salt and pepper.

cream cheese, tomato and onion is better.

 

[SlickShoesRUCrazy]

Kraft Mac and Cheese with sautéed onions and beef franks

 

[DJ Jazzy J]

Cheese bread. It's cheese melted onto bread.
It's not only a struggle meal but def a staple when I have no money.

 

[Peagles]

Any type of home made bread, with butter if available. Don't even need to really be struggling to enjoy it.

Try Crunchy Nut with Cheddar. Much Much better.

 

[lightus]

I don't have any good contribution myself. My struggle meals are normally just the result of laziness.

I remember a guy posted in a similar thread that his was a pack of Tums. That still gets me cackling.

 

[EdibleKnife]

Peanut butter straight from the jar

 

[Macheezmo]

Mayo and Tomato sandwich with a good helping of salt and pepper.

This, but with toasted bread.

 

[PrivateWHudson]

^ White toasted, wheat not. With toasted wheat the tomato gives before the bread and just oozes out the sides.

cream cheese, tomato and onion is better.

Interesting combo. I'll have to try it sometime.

 

[jesu]

toast and 20p noodles.

 

[daveo42]

One box Mac and Chesse (cooked; powder variety)
One can tuna (drained)
One bag frozen broccoli (cooked)

Mix and eat. One full meal for a fat person that can cost as little as $3.

Edit: Cup Top Ramen is good too. Usually the beef or chicken variety. Saltines with Frank's Red Hot is also pretty damn good.

 

[SwiftDeath]

Plain cheese quesadillas with tabasco sauce

Tbh while I've never be that financially well off, I've also never struggled that much financially as I'm lucky.

Government cheese on a Kings Hawaiian roll..

Government cheese on a Kings Hawaiian roll..

What's government cheese? I've always heard stories about it but nevet had to experience.


I guess my struggle meal involves ramen and fake fish sticks.

 

[victreeb3l]

quarter water and a honey bun

 

[Peanut Butter]

3 tic-tacs, a clove of garlic, and a handful of Triscuits.

It's basically a brick of processed cheese issued to folks on welfare. I said it mostly as a joke, I think it's an outdated thing at this point? I'm not sure.

Damnit, I didn't know if it was still a thing or not.

Rolled oats with some juice and water in a blender. Oat shake!

Not only incredibly cheap and filling for hours, but also very quickly made when you're hungry but have to get going.

You can also put some yogurt and/or fruit in there.

Rolled oats are very calorie dense but also rich in fiber, so a shake like that really can last six hours or more for me.

 

[Subpar Scrub]

White rice with avocado, soy sauce and sushi Mayo mixed in a bowl.

Not particularly healthy, but it's usually amongst my leftovers and quick as.

 

[Soul Beat]

 

[Zekes!]

edamame and pizza pops

that or a peanut butter and nutella sandwich

 

[RecRoulette]

Potted meat sandwiches, it is America's favorite after all (I don't put lettuce on mine though)

For something more classy, a pot of white rice mixed with a large can of cream of mushroom soup.

 

[BorkBork]

Dahl and brown rice. I make a batch once a week and can be completely lazy the rest of the time on dinner.

I'm glad it's actually pretty healthy and a complete meal.

 

[Dennis]

Where is the struggle? That is a high class sandwich.

 

[John Kowalski]

Tuna and yesterday's rice.

Hey how did you get my secret family recipe OP?
