Lets hear them guys, Baked potatoes are the ticket for me. What do you guys make on a low budget?

I have a baby camping grill.

I like going to the store and getting some discount meat and grilling on Fridays with some friends and a couple brews.

easy mac
instant hamburger helper
rice
pizza
sausage (if u have a grill)
hot dogs
burgers
chili meat can be good

one thing that i do every now and then is make a huge thing of stew (probly enough to feed 20 or so) and it will last me a month

also you dont think about it but bigger things like a decent sized brisket or ham (yes its expensive) can last u 10 meals if u make sandwiches

I like the stew idea...Might look into a stew recipe and make me a big batch!
