Notes
- Chicken breast was 1.50 for Foster Farms when I de-boned it myself,
- Pizza - scratch crust (easy) no knead crust that takes 15 minutes to make excluding bake time and cost is .17 . Safeways had premade pizza dough that you still have to roll and bake for two dollars. Dough is just flour, salt, water, amd yeast. There are almost always pepperoni 🍕 coupons on coupons.com that make pepperoni .50 at the dollar store. (2/1) dollar store sauce is a name brand, themcheaoest anywhere and you can freeze the sauce in an ice cube tray and use as much as you need (no waste) . The cheaoest real cheese I have found is at Costco unkess you find a sale, remember those little bags are 6-8 ounces and you have to do the math, they might sound cheap until you figure the per pound price. Unit pricing can be tricky when it calculates per ounce . Some prices I have in my head are for cans and you have to do the math.
- Pork chops are still the center cut chops that I cut from a 1.50 a pound Pork loin. Apples are still 3.69 a bag at Winco. That makes them about .69 a pound,
- Chicken nachos. Tortilla hips are cheaper at Winco for mission brand , You can bake them from flour tortillas in a pinch, I have not done the math to tell of that is,cheaper, but, you can control the fat and the salt. Cheapest at DT or on bulk at Costco. I add grated cheese, chicken or beef cooked. Tomatoes, mild peppers and sometimes black olives and/or refried beans as a base. Sliced olives are cheaper at Winco.
- Chilli in the slow cooker. I always prefry the hamburger meat and portion control it when I get it home from the store. I can cook the beans in the insta pot, turn the pot off , drain them when done and add the tomatoes 🍅 and seasonings and turn the pot back on slow cooker mode. One pot and almost,no hands on time.
- Shrimp stir fry. Stir fry veggies are frozen. Sometimes I add ramen noodles cooked without the packet , or make rice.
- Breakfast 4 Dinner. Everybody cooks. Family night.
