Well this week I am featuring a Bargain Meal idea for meat eaters and another in honor of vegetarians (like me!)
Summertime Mango Salsa Chicken:
4 chicken breasts $1.99/lb this week= $2.98
1 fresh mango $1
1/2 red onion .30
1/2 green pepper .40
1 fresh red chile pepper .50
To keep things light I would serve this with sliced cucumbers with red wine vinegar drizzled on top.
Total: $5.18
Veggie Option:
Eggplant Con Queso (this is a little heavy for warm weather but looks so good!)
1 Eggplant $1
1 cup shredded cheddar .99
1 cup diced toasted bread .25
1/2 cup heavy cream .99
Some reviewers also added salsa.
Total Price: $3.23 (the veggies have enough in the budget for dessert!)
