When I was in college, it was a lot of yogurt, cereal, pasta, and subway. Those $5 subways were 2 meals for me.
However, as an adult, I just made a cabbage salad. I highly recommend recipes from budgetbytes. They try to use cheap but nutritious ingredients whether fresh, frozen, or canned
That looks so good! I always forget cabbage for some reason, but you definitely get your money’s worth.
I used a head of green cabbage few years ago to make baked cabbage wraps with lentils as the meat substitute. They fell apart, but still tasted really good.
Uncooked red cabbage leaves makes a pretty good tortilla/bread replacement. Also sauteing shredded red cabbage with red onion then mixing in some goat cheese and sriracha is a really delicious and easy to make side dish.
The most expensive thing is the goat cheese, but be fairly cheap depending on where you buy it. You can also just skip it if necessary bc red cabbage and red onion by itself is still really good.
