Favorite inexpensive meal:
Sausage Penne Pasta-(from Whole Foods cooking class)
Broccolini
Salad
Bread
I saw that the other day and alllllmost picked it up!!!
My favorite inexpensive meal has to be soup. It makes a whole bunch and uses up leftovers out of the freezer, fridge and pantry.
Leftover meat, veggies, potatoes, beans, etc all in the crock pot with some stock and seasonings and you have a big meal with barely any prep time.
Also, my kids(almost 3 and 1) love little taquitos.
we season chicken with taco or fajita seasoning
put it in mini tortillas with monterey jack cheese.
Then roll them up and bake them
They come out like little crispy tubes the kids can dip in salsa or eat plain.
My favorite inexpensive meal is usually breakfast food even if served at dinner time. Sometimes we have scrambled eggs with toast and sometimes pancakes made from scratch.
My favorite inexpensive meal is soup.
sliced sausage and potatoes fried up in the skillet with some onions – cheap and so yummy!!
My favorite inexpensive meal is roast chicken – I get so many yummy meals out of it. 1. Roast Chicken/veggies/stuffing 2. at least one casserole if not two depending on the size of the chicken 3. and yummy home made soup from boiling the bones and adding the stock from when I roasted the chicken. 3 or 4 meals from a $5-6 chicken!
At our house we eat lots of Mexican food. A little meat, some beans, veggies, and whole grain tortillas or chips. Yummy and healthy!
My favorite inexpensive meal is chili.

We eat spaghetti a lot! It is cheap and lasts for a few days.
I love to make chicken enchiladas- very inexpensive! Thanks for the opp. to win this awesome book!
My favorite inexpensive meal is veggies from the garden corn, green beans, tomato, okra, squash, and finish it off with a blackberry cobbler from the blackberries we picked on the farm. I am hungry!
My favorite cheap meal is chicken breast, macaroni and cheddar cheese soup!
.-= Kira´s last blog ..Splenda Sample =-.
Looks like a good read!!!
Red Beans and Rice – makes a big pot for leftovers (can use as a side or as a meal). The kids love it – I usually cook it with brown rice to make it healthier.
my favorite inexpensive meal is shredded pork on the crockpot. Takes no time to put together, it cooks itself, and I get out three or four meals from it.
I added your site to my blog!

My family’s favorite inexpensive meal is our Meatless Wednesdays when we have pintos or white beans, cornbread or hoecakes, and chow-chow. Truly Southern but truly delicious!
Our favorite inexpensive meal is soft tacos with mexican rice.
My family’s fave quick and easy is Kraft’s Skillet Burrito.
spaghetti
I always like to stretch out my shopping trips for as long as I can. At the end of the stretch I like to see what I can make out of nothing. (My husband though, is not such a big fan, especially when he reaches in the fridge and realizes, “still no orange juice?”)
Black Bean soup – thick, hearty & CHEAP – And something the whole family loves!! Can vary it by adding different things to it like ham or different veggies. (GREAT WAY TO SNEAK IN VEGGIES!) Actually was inspired by the recipe on $5dinners, but created my own (which NEVER happens! I’m not usually THAT domestically creative!) and it has received rave reviews from friends and family. Quick. Easy. Cheap. Delicious. Yummmmmmmmm…
I am so greatful for faithful provisions, I have learned a tremendous amount of information about how to save our family money! And we eat some of the coolest meals! A couple weeks ago, I made homemade chix and dumplings. It was soo yummy and easy! (AND CHEAP!)
One of our favorite cheap meals is hamburger steaks. I fry them in the skillet and then add a sliced onion and cook down some fresh mushrooms in a separate pan. If the kids are being finicky that night, I slap a piece of cheese on a “steak” and call it a burger!
My favorite inexpensive meal is pork tenderloin in my Pampered Chef baker! It costs me about $10 for the meat, and I have enough to easily feed 4. Cook on High for 10 minutes in the microwave with a little seasoning on top… and it’s done! Serve with instant mashed potatoes and a side veggie… $3/per person 🙂

We like spaghetti, salad, & garlic bread.
Our favorite inexpensive meal is homemade Sloppy Joes. I brown a pound of ground beef, drain, and return to the pan. Add:
(measurements approximate, I just do it by sight, so adjust to your taste)
1 cup ketchup
2 TBLSP yellow mustard
1 TBLSP brown sugar
1 TBLSP white vinegar
1/2 jar of salsa, your choice.
Simmer on low heat until heated through, and serve on markdown rolls from Kroger! We like to add a little shredded cheese on top and it melts quickly. French fries on the side and everyone loves it. It’s my husband’s favorite meal, inexpensive or not. 🙂
Being new to Faithful Provisions I became a fan quickly. Learning more and more how to be a better steward with God’s money, while providing good quick meals for my family. A favorite recipe I’ve recently tried is rosemary baked chicken with red potatoes.
Another meal our family loves is spaghetti. When I catch ground round on sale, I buy it in bulk and make a large pot of homemade spaghetti sauce, freezeing it in containers suitable for one meal. Then, all I have to do is cook the noodles and thaw the sauce. serve it with a salad and garlic bread. We have a home cooked meal in just a few minutes.
Our Fave inexpensive meal is either lasagne-by dh-or meatloaf-by me. I rarely cook anymore, dh & kids do, so this would be soooo great for our large family!!
My favorite inexpensive meal is spaghetti. Easy Peasy, Yummy and Cheap!!
Another family favorite is to make nachos with leftover refried, pinto or black beans, cheese, salsa, lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream. Delicious!

My favorite budget meal is baked ziti.
Our favorite is bacon and cheddar quiche. I’ll wait to get the eggs, cheese and bacon on sale (or free) and then the entire quiche costs only 50¢ to make! I’ll usually assemble 3-4 at a time and freeze them. Yummo!
My favorite inexpensive meal is crockpot soup. I love using any leftover meats and veggies we have from the week and putting them with chicken broth in the crockpot to simmer all day. Use your favorite spices and when you get home you have super easy, homemade soup and nothing goes to waste.

My fave is also spaghetti with garlic bread.
My favorite cheap meal is 15 bean soup. It makes a ton! If sausage is on sale I can add that too, but it is yummy either way. And of course you can never go wrong with spaghetti.
Spaghetti! Would love to win the book!
Chicken enchiladas! Would love to win!
My favorite bargain meal is soup. I take chicken bones that I’ve saved in the freezer and ends of veggies and make a stock. Then I use meat and whatever is left over in my crisper drawers and boil it. It’s yummy, healthy, and basically free (sunken cost from other meals)!
I love having baked potatoes, with chili on top, or brocoli and cheese! YUm!
