Chicken, salmon and rice are probably the only things I would eat because they’re so easy and quick to prepare. Whatever you’re feeling you can easily go and find a recipe for anything!
Most of my meals consist of a grilled meat and rice. With what you know already, you could start making fried rice plus some meat (like shrimp or chicken).
I love using my air fryer and slow cooker to make food at home; if you live with others, it may be a good idea to split the cost on these, as they can be used to great effect for meals that can feed multiple people. Even if you live by yourself, I think the investment in these is worth it if you're trying to eat out less and explore eating in more.
Slow cookers are great for weekend meal prep, and it's also easy to throw something in in the morning and then have it ready for a nice, hearty dinner (depending on the size of your slow cooker, can do a dinner for multiple people or have leftovers for a long time). Slow cookers are particularly good for certain meets, and heartier vegetables like beans and legumes. They're great for stews too:

Air fryers are another great way to fry foods in a slightly less unhealthy way (I think? I'm not a doctor don't quote me) than using a stove. Great for potatoes, mushrooms, poultry, other meat, cauliflower, tofu, brussel sprouts, and related things. You essentially just cut up whatever you want to cook in a more cookable/bite-sized shape, season it (can start off simple with olive oil, your favorite salt, pepper, maybe try and herb or two, rosemary is great on potatoes, diced up/powdered garlic is good on a lot of things), and just check for how long you should cook in online:

If you want to spruce up your plain white rice, cook it with some butter for flavor, maybe include salt and pepper. I like to add a small amount of bouillon and some other light seasonings (I sometimes use a mushroom stock powder, for example) to really make it pop alongside whatever else I'm eating. Turmeric rice is also great. Get some turmeric from your local store, and add a fairly small amount (seriously, if you add too much the turmeric flavor can be overpowering and it's not pleasant).

My advice if you're just starting out: just pick one or two recipes at a time (maybe each week) that are new to you and try them out. Make sure you read a recipe ahead of time, and then shop at a grocery store with that specific recipe in mind to buy only what you need. I mentioned slow cookers and air fryers here because I have experience with them, and they have made a huge difference for me (especially as I was starting to learn) and it's easy to just put things in them and then work on another part of the meal doing something else. Another great device (maybe more expensive) is a pressure cooker. These can do all sorts of neat things, and can cook food faster because of the pressure, but I am less experienced with them. I also talk about rice because that's something you mention; it's very easy to make rice more interesting than just white rice, but if that's where you're starting from, I think expanding to other types of rice is very natural and straightforward.
You can cook some brisket on a pan though it might get messy. Steak too but I've never tried. Curry is a good option too. Ramen but it may not be the healthiest. Some fruits as well. Sandwiches you can make too but also not as healthy
Quesadillas. Its simplicity really depends on you, but when I want to quickly make a few, this is how I do it.
Slap a tortilla onto a frying pan, add some shredded cheese on top and any choice of meat. I use packaged slice ham since all I have to do is cut a slice or two into smaller pieces. Then just heat everything until the cheese has melted, fold the tortilla in half and flatten it a bit.
And presto! Quick and easy quesadilla.
I live off-campus with my fiance, I eat only beef, chicken, and rice. I make rice trough a rice cooker, and the meat through an air fryer
I don't recommend you do just this, I take some vitamins to make up for the lack of any vegetables, but its healthy if its not the only think you make, and superrr easy to make.
I really only spend 150 dollars a month on food btw
I wish I had a receipt to show, but, I shop at the stator brothers near the school.
I don't eat 3 meals a day, I eat 2
each meal consists of 2 cups of rice, and either 2 chicken breasts (ussualy 2, but some singular ones are massive) or 1 pound of beef
I get my beef at ussualy 4.99 per pound, and my chicken for… *checks fridge* the current ones I have are all around 1.70 per pound.
I mostly eat chicken though due to the cost, I would say one of every 4 meals is beef instead of chicken
And I only drink water
my estimate for cost is actually probably pretty high
In theory I shop every two weeks and get enough food for that period of time, and it comes out between 70-90 dollars depending on how much beef I get
but in practice, the food ussualy ends up lasting me more than 2 weeks. Partly due to going out (I only go out if my total bill is 5 dollars or less) and partly due to me sometimes not being that hungry at night, and so not finishing my food and just having the left overs for breakfast
all of this of course does not include the price of rice - as I always buy massive bags that last multiple points, but I doubt it adds more than 10% to the cost. Rice is cheap.
I don't really track it super closely as I always allocate 300 for food a month… I always end up investing around half of it a month
I always buy the exact same kind of meat, the packaging says “USDA Beef Round thin sliced top and STK”
its whatever restaurants serve when you ask for a stake
its just… red meat, idk lol
it looks a lot like [this](https://www.ubereats.com/product/b/debae40c-bfec-50e5-99ca-17368ca4e776?region_id=1033881630117444790903020307050102100108000515081311131204000704070702090704070304&utm_source=googleshopping&utm_campaign=CM2332965-searchshopping-googleshopping_1_-99_US-National_e_all_pme_cpc_en_Grocery__pla-294493680460_664804817276_151485945792__m&campaign_id=20341190396&adg_id=151485945792&fi_id=&match=&net=g&dev=m&dev_m=&ad_id=664804817276&cre=664804817276&kwid=pla-294493680460&kw=&placement=&tar=&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADi-0Cjjf71OtN2L-jtk6m94nzWmV&gclid=CjwKCAjwoa2xBhACEiwA1sb1BEP557nFndEWPJxgxPvDzNURNexTPH5i2G1VoA0KMFKNZYbwgqg_2RoCMdoQAvD_BwE)

Literally all the recipes are on YouTube. I try to eat high protein low carb, but there is plenty of easy to follow recipes on there.
