During the war my grandmother used to make breadcrumb fritters to bulk out the tiny ration of eggs she got. They are suprisingly delicious even though not that healthy I suppose! You soak some breadcrumbs in milk, add salt and pepper and whisk in an egg. Spoon onto a hot pan like you would with pancake mix and fry in a little butter. Mmm!!
After Hurricane Sandy we couldn't get fresh fruits or veggies for a week and I made a really good risotto. Chop up a small onion and fry on a low heat. Add a large can of crushed tomatoes, some italian spice mix, and a cup of rice. Slowly cook on a low heat until rice if soft, add parmesan cheese (the cheap dry kind, not the naice fresh one).
I have made veggie burgers using canned chickpeas, breadcrumbs, egg, onion and italian spice mix. I blend everything in the blender then shape the patties. You can either bake them on a lightly oiled pan or fry them. I serve them with chips and all the condiments but leave out the buns.
Eggfried rice is another cheap favorite. Add cooked rice, bag of frozen carrot/pea/sweetcorn mix and any leftover chicken/shrimp/meat you have. When it's almost cooked creat a hole in the middle, crack a couple of eggs in it, fry the eggs and mix it all up. Add a little soy sauce. Yum!
I try to serve a vegetable side with every meal and often end up using canned peas or frozen broccolli as it's cheap and easy.
