Cheap food that fills you up?

me and my baby Asked by vampirequeen333 8 months ago, 8 answers.

Money is a little tight at our house does anyone know of food that fills you up besides rice that could help last us through the month because we always hungry and nothing seems to keep up going through the month.

Ramen noodles are cheap and filling. When I was in college I could get a dozen packages for a buck. Now they are more like 2 for a dollar but they are still cheap food.

Boxed macaroni cheese dinners are hard to beat in cheapness. I actually used to like the cheap store brands better than Kraft. You don't need to use as much butter or margarine as the package says if you want it to be cheaper and less fattening.

Bulk rice and dry beans are your cheapest calories and are healthier than pasta but they take a little time to cook. Baked potatoes are another cheap meal.

Soup, soup, soup. 10 bucks worth of veggies and broth makes 8 to 10 servings of soup. Spinach soup, leek soup, butternut squash soup, pea soup, oxtail stew -- soup is ridiculously cheap and has limitless creative possibilities. Yeah, I make a lot of soup.

Well, for breakfast, ik always find that toast or crumpets or something along the lies of those foods fill me up a lot more than cereal. Porridge could be another option but personally I do not like it

happy

mikeh is right on the money...You can make soup to feed yourselves for a week with $25 to $30...Bean Soup (white beans, brown beans, black beans...smoked pork and fresh pork), Vegetable Soup, Pea Soup, French Market Soup, Lentil Soup...all make great nutricious meals for little money...

You can buy one bone-in ham...use the pretty slices for a big batch of scalloped potatoes and ham, and a couple of breakfasts...then use the meat that's left on the bone and the bone for a kettle of bean soup...you get a lot of bang for your buck.

You can get a lot of soup out of one turkey, too...

Soup and grilled cheese sandwich is filling and great. Lasagne goes a long way even though it may seem you are spending $10-15 on the whole dish but it lasts a while.
