Looking for Cheap Fast and Easy

http://www.cookinglight.com/ Is where I get a lot of mine it's free to join and save recipes right on the site and they give nutritional info. They often feature cheap and quick meal ideas.

Number one: save up and invest in a slow cooker.

That said, slow cooker soups are amazing. My current favorite (and my husband loves it too!) consists of:
-1/2 cup chopped onion
-1/2 cup chopped celery
-10 to 12 baby potatoes quartered (or sixth-ed, depending on their size!)
-1 cup chopped carrot
-1 to 2 cups sliced (I like big slices, but that's just me!) mushrooms
-4 small chicken thighs (skin off, but use the dark meat as it will cook better) (optional - you can make this vegetarian!)
-1 can crushed tomato
-1 to 2 cups chicken (or vegetable) stock

Put everything into the slow cooker, and add spices that you like (my current mix is some cayenne pepper (ok, more than some, but I like spicy!), ground black pepper, garlic (lots!), ground mustard, and a couple bay leaves (take out before serving of course!). Cook on high for about 6-8 hours. EDIT: I start this in the morning and it's ready at dinner... so I can feel productive all day!

Pretty low cal, and very filling. I have served this to a lot of people, and haven't had any complaints!
