Watching mythical kitchen about hash browns and wondering if anybody have any ideas on how to make potatoes into other things that are extremely cheap. I usually have only potatoes and margarine at last 2 weeks before I get food stamps because it isn’t enough to cover basic food things.

Does anybody know any good ideas or recipes or something that does not require a lot of other one time ingredients? That’s really cheap on quantities, like spices, where it can last a while with it being really inexpensive.

Things I have is absolutely basic cooking skills and cooking appliances. Microwave oven and stove. I don’t have much of anything because and can’t afford anything

Anybody have any ideas or recipes or thoughts?

    Kielbasa is cheap and tastes good. You can bake some potatoes with it or chop it into little pieces and put it into an omlette or slice it and make a stew with it and potatoes, celery, carrots, onions, etc. It’s just something to add to the mix to change things up and as a single person you can probably use one for like 3 meals.

    I’ve been there. I hope things get better for you.
