I am very blessed to have cooking ability and I'm sure I'm not alone in being low on food and/or money. What would you do if you were in that situation? Go out to eat? Go get Mickey D's? Nah! Why not just throw together what I find in my apartment and call it a day! You know, kind of like Chopped and making a "food salad" combined! This way, I can still feel like I'm eating gourmet, but on a budget! #poorpostcollegegradproblems
*Cous Cous: I have made WAY too much Cous Cous for my own good, but the 5 minute cous cous in the box isn't a bad idea. I got the tomato and lentil flavor and added peas, red onions, garlic, sun dried tomatoes, onion powder, a dash of cumin, chives, red bean noodles (from Whole Foods that I keep at my apartment at my disposal), a package of veggies from an already-used Ramen Noodle pack, and Tabasco Sauce. This can give me up to 4-6 servings, depending on what I use it for!
