My cousin said she spends $60 a week feeding two kids, so I watched her cook

Stayed at her place in Akron over the weekend and she made a huge pot of black beans and rice with a bag of frozen peppers for maybe $4 total. She said you cook the beans dry, not canned, and that one bag lasts months. Before this I figured cheap meals meant boring food, but she fed us three nights off one grocery run of $52. Anyone got a go-to dry bean recipe that doesn't taste like the same pot every time?
