BudgetBytes has absolutely saved me last year when I moved into my first apartment on campus. It's an incredible website that makes it simple and easy to find recipes for us broke college kids. They break down every ingredient by price and serving, so you know you're getting the most bang for your buck. They also make it so simple and easy to follow, with pictures included to help those who are not aspiring to be chefs.
I've found some of my favorite recipes and listed them below! The website also has vegetarian and vegan recipes, so I urge all of you to check BudgetBytes out.
