Struggle Meal Academia. In The Meantime, #2

Welcome back to Struggle Meal Academia, where the fridge is nearly empty, the clock is louder than your stomach, and dinner still has to happen. This is the first volume in the series - the fast track. Fifteen minutes and under, start to finish. No simmering for an hour, no waiting for something to caramelize, no pretending you have a spare afternoon. Just fast, cheap, and actually good food for the nights when "fast" isn't optional.15-Minute Budget Meals is built for the in-between moments: the shift that ends too late, the study session that ran long, the day that ate your whole schedule and left you standing in front of an open fridge with nothing but instinct and a few pantry staples.
This book meets you there. Every recipe lists an estimated cost per serving, so you always know what you're spending before you start cooking - no surprises, no math at checkout. Nothing here requires special equipment, obscure ingredients, or a pantry stocked like a professional kitchen. Just a stove, one pan, and about fifteen minutes. This book is for the students, the night-shift workers, the single parents, the freelancers stretching a paycheck, and anyone else whose pockets don't quite match their palate.
You don't need more time or more money to eat well - you just need the right formula, and a little bit of kitchen alchemy.
