Where I’m from we’d slice them and cook them on the stove with a little bit of oil, ketchup, black pepper and some onions. Good with bread, good with pancakes, good by itself.
I tried a version of that, it was a fail for me though.

Someone on here mentioned green bean cassarole. I had some fresh green beans that were just a little blanced and decided to do that. I put in almonds shreds and onions in it with some mushroom soup. Then covered it with cheese. When I tell you it came out delicious. It was very good.

I also forgot two poors’ staples KOOL-AID in the packet (where you add your own sugar, or stevia because we boujee poor now), and Jell-O.

I think what throws most people off who've never heard of it before is that they envision plain bread with white sugar thrown on top. Really, the bread is buttered, topped with sugar, and then toasted in the oven to melt together. It's pretty much a cheap sweet dessert by then.

My cousins used to also do maple syrup sandwiches, un-toasted but again with all that sugar, it's a cheap sweet dessert by then and bread compliments and pairs nicely with a lot of flavors and textures.
Cheap dessert, if you can find them are those apple pie makers. You put buttered bread (on both sides), apple slices in the middle with some sugar and cinnamon, then put it over the flame on a gas stove, or over an open fire. It has some handles on it. I only found an old one, and was like, this is cool...then my Aunt told me what it was for.

-Vienna sausages. I don't care what anyone says.
Tastes even better mixed with broccoli and Krafts Mac and cheese.

- Instant ramen.

- The cheap-o cookies you find and any grocery store.

- Generic cereal brands.
I will ttrie it with broccolie and mac & cheese also. TBH, that is not far off of what that other person suggested, they just said to bake it, and put tomatoes and onions in it. I know myself, I’ll put it all in.

Salmon croquettes and fried smothered potatoes.
Anytime you use the word croquettes, I think you are moving out of poor food, pluse salmon? Is that British? Are they the same as salmon cakes? Do these rely heavily on bread or bread crumb filling, and other seasonings?

Yes, my mother used to make them when we were low on money. Not sure how she cooked them. I think you can use canned salmon and I'm not sure what she used for breading. She would make them with fried potatoes smothered with onions. Talk about good and filling.

I thought OP meant good tasting food that is poor in nutrition and not good for you. I guess I got it all wrong. LOL!
