A rice cooker would be so handy. Rice comes out perfect. So much can be served over rice. Ekrich sausage cut in slices, fried slowly and then add BBQ sauce. Serve over rice. Bear Creek soup mixes are good and easy.

From recent experience (my daughter) when there is a community fridge/freezer, others tend to help themselves so non refrigerated recipes would be best so they are able to make sure they aren't missing ingredients when they go to prepare their meal. There is a huge variety of pasta and/or rice mixes and even precooked rice packages that can be reheated in the microwave.
Chili without beans can be used as the protein for nachos, add other toppings.
Breakfast burritos, scrambled eggs, sausage, hash browns, cheese and salsa in a tortilla.

Chicken Taco Soup:
2 lbs chicken tenders, thawed. (Try to keep as much of the chicken juices out of the pot as possible)
1 C Salsa
2 small or 1 family sized can of cream of chicken soup. (Dont rinse it with water! Scoop out as much as you can, or use the corn juice to rinse it!)
1 bag frozen Onion and 3 Pepper blend (or you can use fresh. I cant tell you what to do. Peppers were red, yellow, green chopped into strips)
2 cans of Black Beans, rinsed
1 can pinto beans (Ranch Style for flavor and completely optional. Dont rinse these if you use them)
1 can of corn, juice and all (use corn juice for chicken soup can!)
1-2 cans of rotel (tomatoes and chilies)
1 baby can of chopped Jalapeños, dranined (again, you can use fresh if you want, im just lazy)
1 8 oz block of cream cheese, cubed
Taco seasoning, to taste ( i prolly used close to maybe 1/2 cup?)
You see this list? This entire list? Put it in a large stockpot. MedHigh heat for around 4 hours. Stir every hour to make sure everything evenly incorporates. Chicken can be shredded, but tenders are small enough that this step is optional. Garnish with sour cream, shredded cheese, and parsley or cilantro. Id recommend tortilla chips or strips for texture. Can also serve over rice!
Or, you can cook the chicken on the side, and combine everything else in the pot, cook for an hour medhigh heat til everything’s incorporated and melted, about an hour. Add chicken back after shredding.
Option 3: 7Qt Crockpot High for 4 hours, stirring occasionally.
Bon appetite!

Mart teenager loves this. A pound of hamburger meat divided into fourths. It’s a hobo meal. Pat out the hamburg Peggy patty and seasoning however you want. Meanwhile, get big sheets of aluminum foil about 2 x 2 put your hamburger meat patty in the middle. Then build your hobo meal. You can slice potatoes, put on green beans, carrots, onions, anything you want Wrap each one up and a foil packet. Bake it on a cookie sheet in the oven on 350 for about an hour. Yum Yum and super easy.
