What are some ideas for an inexpensive microwavable meal?

Question

We need to come up with something to make that will serve atleast 4 people. We cannot spend more than $5 and a microwave is our only available heat source.

Answer 1

Breakfast Tacos

6 cups scrambled eggs or fried potatoes or hash browns or chorizo sausage or refried beans or crumbled spicy breakfast sausage or bacon or leftover meat (assorted hot and cooked fillings of your choice)
1 dozen 6-inch flour tortillas, heated (fresh if you can find them)
2 cups shredded cheese, such as mild cheddar,pepper jack or monterrey jack,or a combination
salsa, of your choice
chopped cilantro
12 tacos

1. Set out bowls containing the fillings, cheese, salsa and cilantro.
2. Each person builds their own taco by placing the fillings of their choice in the center of the tortilla, and topping it with cheese, salsa and a little cilantro.
3. Fold the taco and eat as is, or if you prefer, fold the filled tortilla and spread some butter on the top half of the folded tortilla and place under the broiler a few minutes to"crisp" the top a bit and melt the cheese inside.
4. One of my favorites is scrambled eggs, bacon, cheese, salsa and cilantro.
5. Potato, egg and cheese with salsa tacos are popular in my household, too.

Get some instant noodles packets.
Boil water and put in noodles. Cover and when soft, drain.
In a different container, add whatever meat and veg and put in for 2 mins.
Stir. Add noodles. Stir. Add seasonings and zap for another minute and a half.
Enjoy.
