A random cookbook at the library in Spokane changed my dinner game

I was just killing time and grabbed this old 'Depression Era Cooking' book off the shelf. The recipe for 'everything soup' used just a potato, an onion, and a can of beans to make a huge pot. I've made it three times this winter for about $2 a meal. Anyone have other old-school cheap recipes like that?

Wait, a whole pot of soup only costs two dollars?

Remember my friend who made lentil soup from scratch? She told me it cost about that, anna567, and I was shocked too.
