Substitute salt for ground black pepper and we got a winner, baby.

Is entremet the struggle version of entrement?
My go-to struggle meal is rice. A bit of salt makes it less nauseating.

Growing up dirt poor it was basically rice or potatoes if we were lucky, or nothing if we weren't. I learned to cook really young, so pancakes sans syrup or boxtie (potato pancakes) were something my sister and I ate a lot.
Back then staples were cheap so you could have milk, butter, flour, eggs, and bread around for very little money.

It used to be instant ramen, but I ate it too much and now it makes me sick.
Now it's white rice, tortillas or random un-sauced pasta, lol.
Also pancakes. Powdered pancake mix is surprisingly cheap and makes multiple meals worth, so yeah, that was a big one.
I don't really keep bread around (I don't eat it enough to justify the cost since over half always goes bad), so sandwiches are out of the question.
oh and lol at the Starbucks struggle meal. smh

I'm on maternity leave with a 6 month old right now so I have a lot of struggle lunches when I'm alone with him and just trying to get something in my stomach before he needs me.
This is my struggle sandwich I had a few weeks ago and had to take a picture for my husband to see. Hotdog, ketchup, mustard.

Back when I was in college, I could get a couple of boxes of pasta roni for a dollar. I would add canned tuna and frozen corn/peas. Each box would last two to three meals.

Tortilla chips with garlic salsa and greek yogurt
Mixed nuts & carrots

haven't/dont need a struggle meal in years...
in college I would make a salad out of a can of tuna, franks hotsauce, an avocado, and romaine.... pretty tasty salad actually.
weenie mac is another - kraft/velveeta + chopped hotdogs.
i mean this is essentially a normal "hotdog" just prepared on a square bun instead of a real hotdog bun...

Pancakes + preserves/jelly of your choosing = a hearty meal any time of the day
Tuna + Mayonnaise + Cooked Pasta. Straight out of the saucepan the pasta was cooked and drained in, because I'm not going to add more washing up to this miserable container of deliciousness.
If the struggle's not so bad I'll cube some cheddar, maybe add a little garlic and diced onion with some sweetcorn.

Ramen in the microwave with a slice of cheese added after taken out so it melts and makes it creamy, i eat this 3-4 times a week. Sometimes ill add crumbled chips or random seasoning i have around, like lemon pepper. Sometimes ill eat a chip sandwich, or just make a grilled cheese.

- tortilla, lunch meat, cheese, maybe mayo, maybe mic it
- when I worked at BK, suffering through my struggles, I would take a cheese slice off the board and wrap it around a newly hot chicken tender. Fucking god-like. Especially if it's the mozz cheese from the italian chicken.
- ramen, drain, add butter and the seasoning packet (oriental flavor is best), instant tasty side dish we used to serve on the side of pork chops, steaks, etc.

The rock of the struggle. I boil it, rinse the starch from the noodles and put em aside. Then I start a shallow pot of chicken broth, don't even touch the seasoning packet, and make my own broth with soy sauce, mirin and black pepper. Pour over noodles and top with a softboiled egg and/or meat scraps and you have a struggle meal to lift the spirits.
