Mine isn't really a "Meal", I used to put margarine spread on white bread and sprinkle a tiny bit of cinnamon and sugar on it as a sweet treat growing up.

Rice + blackbeans + whatever is around + a tortilla = poverty burritos

Also, potatoes in many forms.

Gardening is awesome. Just had some home made mashed potatoes with chives I grew.

I'm growing a good bit of food this year! Mostly herbs but I also have 5 jalapenos and 9 tomato plants. I do have 80 onion sets but I didn't plant them yet because Idk where to do it. Now I think it might be too late for those.

Best time to plant garlic and onion sets is the very end of fall. You can do it in early spring, but the results are better if they overwinter.

Herbs are great and easy to grow.
