Poor Kid Brunch

This Morning's Brunch for two was brought to you by the following circumstances:
1) Limited food supplies
2) Only a microwave and toaster oven for appliances
3) A pie tin, pyrex measuring cup, and smith-wesson knife for utensils.
Some might consider this dismaying, I consider it a challange. Bring it.

Roasted HomeFries
2 Red Potatos, diced
1/2 red onion, diced
5 mushrooms, sliced
1 tbs. cumin
1/2 tbs. salt
1 tbs. oil
1/2 tbs. balsamic vinegar
Preheat Toaster (hey-hey) oven to 425. Toss veggies with seasonings and oil in the pie tin. Roast for 30 minutes until tender.

Whilst cooking, make BisQuick BisCuits
1 1/2 cup bisquick mix
1/4 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup milk
Mix until doughey and drop biscuit-y. If you are me, you have to wait until the taters are out of the oven to make the biscuits on the pie tin. Represent! Cook for 8-10 minutes at 450.

Pair with So Easy Your Brain Will Hurt Gravy
1 Veggie Bouliion cubes dissolve in 2 cups water
or
2 cups veggie broth
1 tbs. cold water + tps. cornstarch mixed in a slurry.
Heat veggie broth in microwave. Add cornstarch slurry and mix until dissolved. Heat in microwave at 45 sec intervals until homogenous.
Plate up taters and bisquits. Smother in gravy and hot sauce. Repeat.
Not the healthiest, I know. And I doubt many of y'all will be put in such weird circustances. I just wanted to show that a tastey, homey meal can be made with limited resources.
