    The "I'm freaking poor so tell me what I can make with this" thread

    I posted this in another forum that I frequent, but I figured you guys might also be able to help me out here.

    Someone suggest something good I can make with the food I have in my cupboard and fridge. If there are other ingredients required that's okay, but not too many. Like preferably only one or two other things to buy. I want to try to use up my food in yummyful ways- it's accumulating and I don't know what to do with it.

    Using up stuff in the fridge is first priority, pantry and freezer are useful, and spices are just so you know what I have and can use.



    If anyone else is having this problem feel free to use this thread as well to list your food that you need to use up.

    Oh, and also, I forgot - our oven sucks, so I would REALLY prefer not to use the oven. Stovetop is fantastic. I'd love to fry something up.


    So I have...

    Fridge:
    Fake cream cheese (two flavours- garlic and herb, and jalepeno)
    Salsa
    Soy sauce
    Soy milk
    Shiromiso
    Marble cheese
    Butter

    Freezer:
    Corn
    Peas
    Soy ice cream

    Pantry:
    Peanut butter
    Cinnamon spread
    Rice
    Pasta
    Kidney beans
    Black beans
    Various types of herbal teas
    ito-wakame
    TVP
    Garlic powder
    Garlic
    Onions

    Spices:
    Mild curry powder
    Cinnamon sticks (so much cinnamon! ><)
    Ground cinnamon (even more cinnamon!!!)
    Whole cloves
    Cumin seeds
    Paprika
    Chili powder
    Cayenne powder
    Salt and
    pepper (ubiquitous....)


    Whoa. I didn't realize I had so much stuff.

    Anyway... help?

                  Cook the rice, par fry the garlic, onions, shallots, green peppers with some of your yummy seasonings (your choice), cook the peas, then throw it all back into a pan to make a tasty fried rice.

                  Or just eat the bagel with the fake jalepeno cream cheese.

                      Sounds like a plan.

                                  I suggest some sort of mixture with the bagel, jalapenos, and corn.

                                  AND CHEESE IF YOU HAVE ANY.

                                      **** you're a smart one. I would never have thought of that.

                                      Yes there's cheese. <3

                                          You could just cook the pasta, and put some cilantro, garlic, and salsa on it. You'd be amazed how good that works. Maybe the jalepenos too if you're into spicy stuff.

                                          And of course cheese ^.^

                                              Waaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh

                                              I've just found that my jalepenos have gone missing.

                                              I don't know whether to blame my carelessness (they got thrown away), someone else's carelessness (someone else threw them away) or someone else's hunger ><
