It's elbow macaroni, a bottle of Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce, some Valentina hot sauce, shredded cheddar cheese, some grated parmesan cheese from the shaker, and some frozen bagged chicken bites/nuggets. Gonna make some toast, butter it and add garlic salt, oregano and parsley to it.The Struggle Is Real

Shit looks fire ngl, I’d happily eat a plate of this
I would have gone with Ragu and skipped the cheddar, otherwise a solid 9/10
Once used chicken nuggets for chicken parm
I’ve eaten way way worse struggle meals than this. You got parm cheese and meat in there, wait till all you got is a third of a loaf of 4 day old stale bread and a bag of frozen spinach and you gotta make dinner with that, that’s when the real fun starts
Scrait bussin. Is that chicken in there?
The males in my house would fuck this up.
I would devour this in a second, but also having trouble seeing this as a struggle meal. I’m not even too hard up right now but It’s absolutely insane how much a bottle of semi decent BBQ sauce and (what used to be) poverty frozen tendies goes for these days. Either way, keep the chin up and keep making the tasty food! You definitely made me hungry
Sheeet this looks great. This would be a celebratory meal for me.
I’d hit it
That while drunk at like 11pm and a good action movie would hit so right.
I remember watching a video about a girl who recently realized that she never follows a recipe. She literally just throws stuff together. I have always done the same. I make meals based off what I have. Sometimes I’ve been really creative and it’s been awesome lol
I’d eat that so fast
Also, back in 2020 it took 9 months for unemployment to finally go thru..it was some rough shit…i feel ya partner. Hope it all goes well mate, keep on truckin
I would fuck this shit up in a heartbeat
That’s stoner food.
And I would.
Looks like a tasty mess you could split up over a week, even better if you cut in some rice and broccoli. I wish you well OP, best of luck on the job hunt.
We call that *pension food* & it slaps harder than my dad when he comes back from the pub👍👍
I initially just read, “I recently got laid”
May this meal summon the check.
I ate this last night! Kraft dinner plus chopped up chicken tendies, tossed in Frank’s Buffalo sauce.
I would devour this. I also love adding bbq chicken to my mac and cheese. Also, fwiw, the Walmart brand of shells and cheese is 1000 times better than velveeta. Their fancy flavors are also really good, but for bbq, I prefer the OG cheddar.
The next time I’m able to afford groceries I’m going to do something like this, but hopefully with boneless / skinless chicken thighs and maybe a rotini or shell noodle instead…
I’d eat the hell out of this!
SAME!!! Been 2 weeks
Just got laid off yesterday myself. Taking recipe notes. 😑
