Why not add other cereal crops into your rotation. They're also very very cheap - like rice, pasta, corn and flour? Add in some cheap herbs and spices to keep the raw ingredients interesting. But you do need protein too. Tinned fish is a good option. As are lentils and beans and also very very cheap. If you can, get from an Asian supermarket. You can certainly gain weight from eating these foods. You can buy cheap tinned vegetables if fresh is too expensive. And try food banks.

Do you use spices or hot sauce to add flavor? A slow cooker could make soups and stews with potwtoes and whatever vegtables or scraps. Im sure lentils will send a represenitive to talk about them.

Lentils are lit.

Seriously, I wish I ate more of them as they're such a lovely cereal crop that just gets ignored. And cheap af too.
