1/2 an onion, diced
3 diced cloves of garlic
2 tablespoons of olive oil
2 large veggie bullion cubes

1 chopped carrot
1 small can of corn
2 teaspoons of cumin
1.5 teaspoons of lemon juice
1 teaspoon of thyme
1 teaspoon of honey
1 teaspoon of black pepper
(these measurements are all approximate. I didn't measure anything when I made it, but really season everything to your taste)

COSTS:
This recipe is CHEAP and filling. Although it helps if you already have some of the seasonings. At my grocery store, I buy 2 cans of chickpeas for a dollar. Pasta sauce is cheap too, and you can get a jar at Trader Joe's for 99 cents. The veggies will cost more, but you can get the above meal (which serves 2) probably costs $5 if you already have some of the seasonings.
