While nutritionally not the best choice, I understand your issue. When times get hard the food budget gets hit. Here is a recipe I found on the Armour website. The veggies make it a bit healthier.
Here is the link so you can see the other recipe ideas. Good luck.

add some salsa to it, wrap in small tortillas with cheese, deep fry (or partialy fry, then bake) until tortilla is crisp. Quick taquitos. you can add some black beans or refried beans, too.
mix it with bbq sauce, then fill crescent rolls with it and roll up. you have to use the BIG crescent rolls, though. I have also used flaky biscuits, cut in half lengthwise, then flattened and stuffed wth it. Bake as directed on package.
mix it into mac & cheese, or use it in Hamburger Helper instead of ground meat
make beef noodle casserole (use your fave tuna noodle casserole and substiute beef for tuna)
make baked potatoes with various meat toppings by mixing it with salsa, hot wing sauce, bbq sauce, chili, etc
make cowboy cornbread: combine the beef with bbq sauce and place in the bottom of an 8x8 baking pan. Drain a can of corn or mixed veggies and spread on top. Prepare 1 box of Jiffy cornbread mix and pour on top. Bake as directed on cornbread box.*you can also pour half the cornbread batter into the bottom of the pan first to create a crust.
make shepherd's pie: combine 3 carrots, sliced thin, 2 potatoes, chopped small, 1 can corn (drained), 6 c water and 1 pkg McCormick beef stew mix in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook 30 minutes on high (it should thicken a little). Add a few cans meat then pour into a 9x13 pan. Top with mashed potatoes (I make homemade, but you could use instant). Bake 30 minutes at 350.

make pot roasts a lot and use leftover beef in similar ways

Get a pork roast and pour BBQ sauce over it and let it cook for 8 hours and make pulled pork sandwiches. You can also Get a couple meals out of baked chicken pieces, for one, the chicken pieces themselves and then left overs the next day could be chicken salad and then the day after that make BBQ chicken pizza.

I grew up on potted meat sandwiches down south, but I've never had a meal made with it. I would think you could make a great cheese-ball using some potted meat, but I've never tried - thanks for the idea!

Just remember that potted meat & Spam are two different things. Spam is great sliced & fried just like a piece of ham & also great in scrambled eggs.

I tried that stuff..its full of preservatives..
..I would suggest Corned Beef Hash..made in cast iron..and served topped with fried eggs..
I also use canned Salmon..I make fish pattie sandwiches or I make a pizza topping..
Canned Tuna omlets are very good..
I would suggest you stick to the SPAM brandname..I've eaten quite a bit of that and never suffered anything..(cook it)..
Some of the generic SPAM-type stuff is close to a disaster for your body.
