I like ground venison no fat added, put some olive oil in the pan turn on the heat brown the meat with garlic powder and a chopped onion when just about done you drop in a can of pork and beans. Serve on top of 2 pieces wheat toast. Just about as basic as it gets and allways good. Mb

Yep. One of my favorites is a fried egg sandwich. Or I just do two eggs in a microwave bowl for kinda like a poached egg sandwich. Other favorite cheap meal is a pot of red beans, or as they’re called by most, pinto beans. With some fresh cornbread. 🤠

4 strips for bacon, diced and fried
1/2 onion, diced
1 large potato, diced
1 can canned milk, 1 can chicken broth.
S&P to taste.
Bring to a boil, then simmer for one hour.
Inexpensive to make, and it "sticks to your ribs"

That’s what I usually do for breffes, ‘cept buttered toast. Stupid AMA now admits that dairy fat is heart healthy. No reason to avoid it. https://www.healthline.com/health-news/full-fat-dairy-better-for-you-than-skim

Well of course it’s healthy. Old time farming families survived on it for YEARS. GREAT Grandparents and my Grandmother, all lived into their late 90’s eating the good stuff. Skim milk and all that other fat free schitt is for sissy’s. 🤠

Love Navy Bean Soup with ham hocks. I make it every winter, several times. In fact, just last week I bought some smoked ham hocks and stuck them in the freezer for when the cold weather gets here and I'll make a batch of Navy Bean Soup.

Are y’all talking about those big ole white beans ??? That look like oversized Lima beans but they are white? Mom cooked them with ham hocks when we were kids. She always called them Butter Beans. Damn good when served with hot buttered cornbread.

Hard to beat, but I butter the toast, then lay some fried egg on it, and go to town on it. Great breakfast. PS Anything with eggs is pretty cheap for me, since my hens give me between four and six daily.

No, Navy Beans are small dry white beans. Probably tastes the same as the ones your mom made, though.
