Will they only be cooking for themselves? I've wasted more money on food that went bad before I could eat it all (I live alone), than I have on botched cooking.
If they can plan out menus that include an ingredient in multiple ways, that helps combat this. Pasta is a good staple that can be made in a larger batch and then used for spaghetti, cold pasta salad, etc. Rice can be eaten fresh and also older by adding it eggs and making fried rice.
