What kind of dishes and utensils should I get?

Long story short, I got into a heated argument a few days ago with my mom. She then boycotted cooking meals for me permanently, although that remains to be seen. I can't afford to eat out fast food everyday with what little I have, and also since I have no income. I'm currently trying to get into the skilled trades and I will go to the food bank, but until then, I'm gonna buy and eat grocery stuff.

Until my mom is in a better mood, I won't bother asking if she'll still let me use the kitchen, provided I buy my own food and clean up after myself. So far, I only bought 1 loaf of whole wheat bread, 2 small cans of sliced mushrooms, 2 medium cans of tuna, 2 large cans of beans, and 1 jar of peanut butter. It costed me total of around 16.50 bucks after taxes at Walmart, and I did have to resort to cheaper brands.

I definitely need to get a can opener and a plate, but not sure if I need anything else. I do remember my parents giving me some of their dishes, pots, pans, and utensils for when I was in university. But I checked the basement and couldn't find it at all so I think I might have to buy those. I won't be cooking anything until my mom isn't as mad at me and lets me use the kitchen.

second hand stores are glorious for cookware and dishes.
Basic plate, bowl, spoon for and knife. Small pan. A sharper knife, vegetable peeler, something to cut on, like a cutting board.
@nonsensiclesnail would buying from the dollar store be better? It's within walking distance, while the thrift store I gotta take the bus or ride a bike. I used to have a thrift store within walking distance, but it closed down.
@uikakarotuevegeta you will get better quality products from a thrift store but they may cost more.
