[Request] Eating on a budget.

So unfortunately right now we are dirt poor. And already eating A LOT of rice. We got a two 50 lbs bag of jasmine rice from one of my neighbors for helping her after she broke her leg. We've gone through one bag in the last month and a half but eating plain rice every day for every meal has been a trial. We add chicken because we can get it pretty cheap. And done arroz con pollo chicken fried rice and lime rice. Any ideas as to how and cook this differently would be appreciated. We have a bunch of castiron and a instant pot. So any other ideas on how to make bulk cheap food would be appreciated.
