    honestly you don’t even need to learn to cook, just buy an assload of vegetables and some protein and toss that in a big pot, fry it up for a bit, then add water and let simmer for as long as you can.

    soup/stew is, in practical terms, the best food.

    also depending on what exact ingredients you get you can do what we in sweden call “mess in a pan” where you just dice up some root vegetable, onions, some protein (e.g. sausage), fry that up with some salt and pepper, and maybe serve with an egg. Trivial and hilariously cheap.
    For 80 bucks you get AT LEAST 8 kg of that dish, and if you just add a bunch of different root veggies and peas and whatever fits, that’s basically pet food but for humans. You shouldn’t be missing any particular nutrient and it’s so good that i barely mind eating nothing but that day in and day out.
