Don’t be afraid to “dress up” box dinners like Mac n cheese or suddenly salad. A handful of beans, tomatoes, onions, carrots, or whatnot can stretch it and make it healthier.
Cooked and then refrigerated Quinoa, Bulgar, and Couscous make great salad bases for something different than lettuce.
Savory oatmeal is supposedly a thing, but I’ve never tried it.
A quarter pound of beef in Mac and cheese is ace and still super cheap.
Or can of tuna.
Personally, I like "White Trash Heaven"- it's just mac and cheese with fried Spam slices.
The cousin of the also delicious Mac and cheese with hotdog slices.
Bro, it's like hotdog slices 10x on steroids. Spam is so fucking underrated. It's probably due to it being slightly slimy and gross coming out of the can, but damn if it doesn't smell like bacon when it's frying. Could also be that eating a lot of it will definitely give you a fucking heart attack lol.

Oh, don't get me wrong. I love some pan fried spam with eggs. Add some bread for a tasty sandwich.
Franks red hot sauce with Mac and cheese is amazing. If you want more protein, grab one of those already cooked chickens from the grocery store, rip it apart with your hands, and toss it in too.
