2. breakfast foods are usually easy also grilled cheese is pretty easy you can easily make scrambled eggs by just scrambling eggs an add whatever you want to it like some veggies or cheese then let it cook in a pan coverd with butter before hand also french toast..scramble some eggs an add some cinnamon an milk then dip the bread into the mixture and cook it with butter in a pan until both sides are golden brown mashed potatoes are also fairly easy to make you just need a potatoe masher and peeler cut and peel the potatoes and then put them to boil until tender..then drain them you can add salt pepper and milk and butter and also sometimes sour cream helps kick it up a notch =] spegettis also pretty easy you can just buy the jarred sauce and add whatever spices you like..then boil some noodles and poor the sauce over them and your done! also adding ground beef will make it to become speggeti bolagnese =] you can also make alfredo pasta just add alfredo sauce to linguinie noodles and then throw some cooked frozen shrimp and done sloppy joes are also another easy thing to make just add sloppy joe sauce to ground beef and throw it on a burger bun! what about tuna casserole..you need a can of tuna some cream of mushroom soup an boiled noodles add it all together an top it with cheese then throw it in the oven and your set! ohh and potatoe salad..just boil an mash potatoes..add mayo maybe a little mustard..some onion/carrot/a little celery maybe some egg or ham and whatever else you like Macaronies and cheese are fairly easy..you can boil some noodles and then put velveeta cheese over the top an let it bake in the oven..yum if you eat fish you can buy some cans of salmon an throw it in a pot and let it cook..I add some garlic seasoning to mine and eat it with some white rice! yum by the way minute rice is pretty good and fast an easy to make if you just follow the instructions you can also by some frozen chicken breast an let them thaw then season them with whatever you like..like salt/pepper/garlic and then fry them in some butter.. lol these are just a few but I hope I helped!

3. Look online for casserole recipes...those are the cheapest and easiest things to make. Throw stuff together give a mix and bake it :) Crock pots are grea for that too! allrecipes is a good site and so is cooks.com These are some quick meals that are cheap and easy but still good. Chicken Alfredo 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts 1 jar of Alfredo sauce Spaghetti noodles This is a pretty quick recipe so start boiling the noodles first. Cut chicken into bite size pieces. Cook in olive oil or margarine/butter until done. Add Alfredo sauce and heat thoroughly. When noodles are done, drain them and serve alfredo sauce on top. **If you want you can add some fresh garlic, salt, or parmesan cheese to boost the flavor a bit. Pizza casserole: 1 lb ground meat 1 (15oz) jar of pizza sauce 1 (12 oz) bag of egg noddles 1 (8oz) bag of mozzarella cheese Brown the meat and drain. Boil the noodles, drain well. Put the meat and noodles in a large mixing bowl (or back in the pan you boiled the noodles in to save on dishes) and add pizza sauce and 1/2 bag of cheese. Mix well and pour into a greased 9x13 ( I use Pam spray) Top with the rest of the cheese and bake it in a 350* oven for 20- 25 minutes. Serve Poor Mans Stroganoff (this isn't really a casserole but it is cheap and good) 1 lb or so ground meat 8 oz container of sour cream 1 can cream of mushroom condensed soup (we use cream of chicken cause we don't like mushrooms) Brown the meat and drain off grease. Add sour cream and condensed soup (no milk) heat thoroughly and serve over cooked noodles or rice. Tator Tot casserole 1 lb ground beef 1 can green beans ( we use corn) 1 can cream of chicken OR cream of mushroom 1 can water or milk (we use milk) Tator-tots to cover the top of dish shredded cheddar cheese (optional) Brown the beef, drain and put into the bottom of a greased 9x13 pan. Combine green beans or corn, cream of chicken or cream of mushroom soup, and the water or milk in a medium bowl. Pour the mixture over the beef. Put Tator-tots on top to completely cover the mixture. Bake in a 350°F oven for 25-30 minutes, or until Tator-tots are lightly browned and crisp. Sprinkle shredded cheese if desired over the top and bake for 5 more minutes.
4. Ramen noodle, you can make so many variations of them, and they are cheap. You can probably survive for a good 15 years on ramen noodles. Good luck. Just not quite sure if you have a kitchen, or just a microwave.
5. you might want to try a box of hamburger helper the first time.I know its basic but it usually turns out just follow the directions.Once you conquer that type of cooking you can go further with recipes.
