Need meal ideas...

that would cost around $10.00 for 2 nights worth of food. I know I'm not expecting steak or anything. We are on a budget (tight) right now and need to come up with meal ideas. Whether it be for lunch or dinner.

I already have a pasta/sauce lined up since I make sauce on Sunday's and that lasts 3 nights.


Thanks!

chicken legs, thighs & wings on are on sale alot.

I put them in a deep sautee pan sprayed with Pam, sliced potatoes, fresh vegetables (whatever you have in the house) - sprinkle with Adobo & Sazon and cook on low for 1 hours to 1-1/2 hours.

Cheap and delicious on pot meal.

chicken cutlets..you can buy a family pack and make a few meals out of that..
I usually make chicken fajitas one night, chicken cutlets (breaded) another, and grilled or stir fried another.

Hmm we buy chicken cutlets when they is on sale (it was $1.89 a lb. this week), then freeze and use later. We do chicken with pasta, chicken on salad, hamburgers, tacos...

meatloaf lasts 3 nights between the 2 of us and it is super cheap to make with rice or mashed potatoes
