What food vegetable(s) should I grow that's a good balance of low effort and would save a lot of money on grocery bills?

If there was a chart of this kind of thing or a solid non-SEO-spam resource, that would be helpful, too.

If you really just want to plant and forget, potatoes require next to no effort and grow like weeds. They are however, the cheapest fucking vegetable in the grocery store. Might be a consideration depending on how much land you personally can and are willing to cultivate for food

Potatoes like it when you mistreat them I swear. I can lovingly care for a potato, plant it, water it and have it die but the chunks I cut off with an eye haphazardly sprout in the grass and so do the ones I leave in the pantry??
