I'm down with the cheap recipes idea, because it's probably the most useful thing that might come out of this thread. Prices are a rough estimate, because it's off the top of my head and it's hard to estimate how much a teaspoon of something costs when you don't buy it by the teaspoon.


DIY Franks and Beans

1 package hot dogs, sliced (I get the cheapest kind, which are roughly $1.25)
1 lb. white beans (navy beans, northern beans, etc. about $1.50)
vegetable oil (.25)
1 large yellow onion, chopped (.25)
2-3 cloves garlic, minced (.10)
1 14 oz. can diced tomatoes (.75)
1 8 oz. can tomato paste (.33)
2 Tbsp. worcestershire sauce (.25)
water
salt and pepper
optional additional spices: dried oregano, thyme, sage up to 1 1/2 tsp.


First, soak the beans overnight. The next day, follow instructions on the bag for boiling them, it usually takes an hour and a half or so. Drain beans and set them aside.

In a large pot, heat the oil and saute the hot dog slices. Add in the onion and garlic, stir for a couple minutes or so. Dump in the beans, diced tomatoes and tomato sauce. Add worcestershire and enough water so that the beans are almost but not entirely immersed. You don't want the beans too watery. Add spices if you're using them and simmer until the beans have reduced somewhat and everything has thickened a little, maybe half an hour. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Very filling and high in protein and it makes a LOT.
