I didn't realize how much of my childhood was struggle meals until I thought about it as an adult. Lots of buttered noodles with salt/pepper, a ton of canned fruit/veg (free thanks to my grandpa working at a canning plant), and when we had the money to splurge on meat, Mom would make a pork roast with potatoes and onions. I have fond memories of the scent of the roast simmering in a cast iron pot all day, and then you could use the leftovers with some BBQ sauce (sparingly!) on plain white bread for a poor man's pulled pork. Every couple of years I buy a pork roast just to remind myself of home and how far I've come.

It kinda lessens the blow when most of your national dishes are "struggle meals". People didn't have too much to choose from when we were kinda forming our national identity 110 years or so ago. Like the absolute peak dish is this nonsense called "karelian roast" where you take all the bad and chewy bits of a pork, put it in a pot with onions and if you can afford them carrots, then cover them with water, and put in oven until it's all grey mush.

Apparently I did struggle meals wrong. In college I started off the month buying a big bag of rice and then would buy meat whenever it was on sale or on clearance. Then spend some money on garlic salt, pepper, soy sauce, and ginger and then went wild with whatever other ingredients were on sale. 5lb of rice 8.98 Garlic salt 4.78 Black pepper 3.77 Ground ginger 2.24 Soy sauce 3.58 Vegetable oil 3.84 Total 27.19 for all the seasons and rice which will last a while. I usually got a few weeks out of the rice and only needed new seasonings every 3-4 months depending on how liberal I was with them. Then for protein and veggies watch for good sales and clearance. Now these prices aren't totally accurate because I'm just going off Walmart prices they could be more or less depending on where you live.

The chicken bouillon that was used for the popcorn chicken is a powder. Meaning you can sprinkle it on without making your popcorn soggy. What you used is chicken base, a chicken concentrate meant to be used to make stock but with flavor closer to freshly made chicken stock. It’s not the same and, while I don’t want to try either, I’m almost 100% certain that would have both tasted and looked better if you had used the powder.

She would also add fresh cooked beans ($1.98/ one 32 oz bag) which had been left cooking all day. On fancy days she would make fresh jalapeño salsa and add it to give it some spice.

The soup sounds similar to what I had growing up. I would buy pasta that was star shape and I would cook it in a pot of boiling water that flavored with vegetable stock and while I made this because there wasn't anything in the house (not struggling, more like we ran out food and needed to go shopping) and thats all we had. I loved it so much I still make it today and I'm 30 years old

One of our simplest struggle meals growing up was putting small bread pieces in a mug, then two soft boiled eggs and then mush it all together until the bread soaks up the egg. I sometimes make it and reminisce my family being around

I can make a giant pot of bean soup for like 10 bucks from dollar store ingredients. One thing that always makes struggle meals more palatable is having a good selection of dried and powdered spices (which i can also find at the dollar store). Your wallet doesn't have to suffer just to satisfy your tastebuds, and your tastebuds don't have to suffer just to satisfy your wallet. Shop around for deals, and just never be afraid to experiment. If you worry a lot about making things, or just have no idea where to start, then i actually recommend studying recipies from times of scarcity. In the U.S. that would be the great depression and world wars one and two in terms of years i'd start looking into. People really showed a lot of good and bad creativity during eras of rationing. Even if your situation is bad now, i have every faith that you'll be alright.

@@hardywatkins7737 the food bank was a god send for me in college. I'd go with my roommate to get a box for two, then cook loads of stuff before the fresher things could go bad. I can't have dairy so I'd trade the dairy products for other things with friends on and off campus. Lol sometimes I'd even trade home cooked meals for other stuff, like extra ingredients or spices. I know there are lots of people in my age group that feel ashamed or embarrassed to go to a food bank, but honestly its a resource like any other.

A struggle meal my mom would make is kind of a mushroom-tuna casserole. She'd mix white rice, cream of mushroom soup, canned peas, and tuna together then bake until warm throughout. If we had them, she'd sautee sliced button mushrooms in butter and add them, but they're not essential. I actually liked it as a kid, but it's not everyone's cup of tea.

One of my favourite Struggle Meals was and still is absolutely amazing. You just need some cheap fish liver. I usually bought packs of 10 or more because they were quite cheap. then you get a can of corn, one onion, some bread, or crackers and finally soy sauce. Just mix one can of fish liver into a bowl, add the corn, add the soy sauce, then finally finely chop half an onion and add that in. Mix it, add the crackers and let it soak for 5 mins. Done. It's packed with nutrients, but really easy to make and it goes amazingly well with any cheap liqueur.

One of my struggle meals was ramen. You boil the ramen. When it's fully cooked, you get the noodles and put them on a hot pan with melted butter. You cook it with that and can add cheese and part of the packet seasoning. If we could afford any meat (in a can), you can add it in and mix it all up. May not look like the most appitizing but it's pretty good.
