Does anyone know any cheap and easy food recipes that are filling and preferably healthy? I’m a trans guy who’s 5 months on T and I am *insatiable* hunger wise and it’s getting to the point where it’s starting to be an issue-

pasta & rice is filling and cheap, and if you want meat then chicken is generally the cheapest

Make yourself a beans rice meat (AND SEASONINGGGG) and you can eat it in a variety of ways and its pretty cheap and filling. Also doesnt require a ton of effort and you can make a big batch of it

lentils can be surprisingly similar in taste and texture to ground beef in a chili if you want to bulk up the portion for cheap

Oooo yeah that’s smart, the only thing is that I have a lot of food allergies like gluten, garlic, and dairy and gluten free pasta is expensive. But rice and meat sounds great

find mixes you like too! if you’re not much of a cook, you can get premade mixes or even those microwaveable rice meals. if you like a certain one a lot, you can look at the ingredients or look online to see if there’s a sauce/gravy recipe that you can start making yourself :D

rice, meat, sauce and vegetables is an unbeatable meal. should try stir frying your vegetables it’s very easy just a little oil in a pan and stir until golden brown

Uuuuuugh yes this all sounds so good I love it, thank you! If you think of anything else let me know! I love things like seafood and other protein heavy stuff so I’m definitely writing this all down
