Heat up black beans with a fuck load of cumin, some cayanne, bay leaves, salt, and garlic powder. Stir in https://a.co/d/ehCTDgX and serve over rice.

Oat milk oat milk oat milk. OAT MILK. I can't describe how much I hate powdered milk and as much as I like oatmeal I can only eat so much. Me and my sister have taken the leftover oat mulch and mixed it with a flavor packet from some other dried food to make pancakes but I don't recommend it.

On the topic of black beans if you like Mexican food/have spices you can low boil the beans (with the juice and some water) with onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, paprika, chili powder, salt and pepper to make beans that go really good with chicken / rice / eating by themself ngl

If you end up with a lot of dry pastas I low-key like to eat em right out the box (I just dump the flavor packet and shake it) but you can fry the noodles to get like chips

Canned peas aren't gross imo but it's soooo easy to make fried rice with leftover rice (the rice has to be cooked and then cooled) peas, garlic, egg and onions and then you just add whatever else you want (+ idk where you live but here I just walk into chains like panda express and grab soy sauce packets). Bonus points if you take the egg yolks and mix them into the cold rice - it'll coat the grain and give it that Chinese food texture

Also don't diss pancake mix, almost every pancake mix doubles as a "bake starter" which means you can use it to make cakes, muffins, fry batter, etc etc. I like to make biscuits

Peanut butter is another versatile one but something different you can try is making peanut sauce which is so delicious with instant ramen noodles.

I also used to always end up with canned chicken?? I would basically just use it like ground meat lol
