My grocery bill is getting scary. I'm trying to be smarter about meal planning, but inspiration is lacking. What's your favorite budget-friendly recipe that actually tastes amazing?

Italian beans on toast! Cook your dried white beans with finely chopped carrots, celery, lots of garlic and onions. Salt well once they’re done and add herbs (fresh is best), olive oil and lots of lemon juice. Suuuper good when you mix in roasted cherry tomatoes and a tiny bit of diced raw shallot but those are optional. Serve on garlic bread. I make this every other week and it’s amazing

Chick peas in pico de gallo and what every fish is cheap that what I’ll eat for the week during lunch

I use EveryPlate meal boxes every week. Really cheap I think $60 per week and the meals are actually good for me so I’m actually not snacking. Snacking is what hits the pockets. I’m solo so cooking one meal a night feeds me for that night and lunch the next day. Then apples peanut butter rice crackers cheese sticks etc to fill in hungry times.

OMG yes when I worked at fidelity all I did want go down stairs and tear up the kitchen

Pasta fagoli, pasta e ceci, etc. Soups are usually versatile and budget friendly. Beans are cheap and good source of protein.
