My Cheap Meal Last Night

Here's what I made for dinner last night with the sale items I bought:

Chicken Fajitas with Beans and Rice

(1) pack chicken breast from Food Lion for $2.47 (Holly Hills Chicken is B1G1 lb this week)

(1) Old El Paso Fajita Kit from Publix for $.46 (B1G1 $2.91 at Publix this week - thru Wed.)
(used $.50/1 printable from HERE - doubled to $1/1)

(2) Green Peppers $.69 (B1G1 $.69 at Food Lion this week - thru Tues.)

(1) Onion $.33 (bought a 5 lb bag a couple of weeks ago for $3.99 that contained 12 onions in it making them $.33 each)

(1) can of Taco Bell Home Originals Refried Beans (FREE after doubling my $.50/1 printable from coupons.com a few weeks ago)

(1) package of Mahatma yellow rice mix $.27 (these cost $.65 each at myWalmart)
(used $.75/2 coupon from the 8/29 RP insert)

Grand Total: $4.22 and I fed a family of 5 with it making it $.84 a serving!

Tomorrow Night

I plan on using the leftover tortillas to make the Beef Taco Skillet recipe from HERE. 



1 lb Ground Beef $1.87 (I got a 4.76 lb pack of ground beef at a local IGA for $8.90 - making it $1.87 lb.)

1 can Campbell's Tomato Soup $.33 (they're $.50 each at CVS this week)
(used $1/6 coupon from the 9/12 SS insert)

1/2 cup Pace Salsa $1.09 (B1G1 $2.79 thru Wed at Publix this week - I'll use this instead of Picante sauce since I don't have any Picante Sauce)
(used $.60/2 coupon from the 8/29 SS insert)

1 cup Kraft Shredded Cheese $.19 (B1G1 $2.79 this week at Food Lion)
(used $5/5 printable from HERE - making them $.39 each)
**The recipe calls for 1/2 cup of cheese, but I know I'll use at least half of a pack because we're cheese lovers around here**

1/2 cup water = FREE :o)

I'm not including the price of the tortillas because they were left over from last night's recipe and I already included their cost in that dinner.

Grand Total:  $3.48 or $.69 each serving for a family of 5!
