How well rounded is that nutrionally? I already have a big bag of rice...

You will survive. Throw some milk and some greens in there and you are well on your way. If youre actually in this spot, I have more poor as fuck, but need calories for manual labor tips, but don't wanna preach

Lentils, chickpeas, quinoa. The latter is pricier, but has all the animo acids you need without meat in your diet, which is really, really pricey. Costco generally has 5lb bags in the $10 range if you have a membership.

That's called a "complete protein", and many combinations of food result in complete protein, including rice and beans. Lentils and chickpeas is probably complete without the need for quinoa.
