Can Nigerian Student Make these Foods Cheap? by DyshApp(op):
SLOPPY JOES
Sloppy Joes are really easy to make from scratch in a single skillet and it will taste so much better than the canned version. Or, if you have a slow cooker, this recipe is great to make while you're in class. By the time you come home, dinner will be ready. "Much better than Manwich and SO easy! The best thing is it's made with ingredients I always have in the house, and it's not a hundred ingredients either, so it's fast to make," says reviewer AMERETTE.

Ingredients
• 1 pound lean ground beef
• ¼ cup chopped onion
• ¼ cup chopped green bell pepper
• ¼cup ketchup, or to taste
•1 tablespoon brown sugar, or to taste
• 1 teaspoon yellow mustard, or to taste
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 6 hamburger buns, split

Directions

1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir lean ground beef in the hot skillet until some of the fat starts to render, 3 to 4 minutes. Add onion and bell pepper; continue to cook until vegetables have softened and beef is cooked through, 3 to 5 more minutes.

2. Stir in ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, and garlic powder; season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes.

3. Divide the meat mixture evenly among hamburger buns.

SIMPLE MACARONI AND CHEESE

•¼ cup butter

•¼ cup all-purpose flour

• ½ teaspoon salt

• ground black pepper to taste
