Quesadillas
The trick to saving on this super cheap meal is to make your own tortillas.
If you buy your own, you're going to probably double the cost of this recipe.
Here's my recipe.
Ingredients:
1 can 365 brand black beans
Shredded cheese (to taste-- I only use 1 tablespoon per tortilla)
Tortillas
Optional: Onion, tomato, jalepeno, salsa, sour cream, avocado
I like to make my quesadillas in a panini maker, but you can just do it in a pan, too.
Sprinkle in your beans and cheese, and press/pan fry for a few minutes (stay close by)-- the end!
You can make really full quesadillas and this will make about 6 big ones-- or you can make 10-12 tortillas and just spread the beans a little further. The nice one about this recipe, is if you always have flour & canned black beans on hand-- you don't really need much to make this happen.
One in the panini maker, finished ones been cut up, and a tortilla cooking.

Nachos
This is my current go-to when I don't feel like cooking.
It is somewhat healthy, inexpensive, but more of all... easy.

1 bag 365 shredded cheddar- to taste, i only use about 1/2 cup

everything else is optional! You can leave it at the above if you want.
