Tonight's meal was easy, cheap and yummy.
We had beans and sausage for dinner with cornbread.
Smoked Sausage was $1.79
2 Cans of Beans were $1.60
2 boxes of Jiffy Cornbread mix were $1.00
Spices were $0.25
Probably used about $0.50 of milk
The butter for the cornbread was $0.25 worth or so.
So all in all, dinner cost $5.39! :)
Not too bad. Or at least I don't so. Stay tuned for tomorrow and see if I set a new record for money saving dinner!
What did you have for dinner tonight?

@thislittlepennyearns the recipe is all over the Internet--for slow cookers and pressure cookers. I had it with jasmine rice and steamed green beans.

My lunch earlier today was a Frozen Beef w/Vidalia Onions Patty.. (got them from Wal-mart they are Delicious and only $6.98 for a box of 6) and a 1/3 of a Stouffers Mac N Cheese ( I got a 20 oz box as it was cheaper per pound and I split it into 3 (side dish) meals. That was $3 so for $2.17 I had a really tasty lunch.
Tonight I am at work and brought something I could make quickly. So I have a can of Tuna ($1) I brought some mayonaisse.. (maybe about .25 to .50) I mix in some garlic powder and I am going to eat that as a dip with some tortilla chips (maybe about .75 worth) So again a meal for a little over $2.

@Courtlynn, it was. I was pretty lazy tonight- and it was easy. Especially since I only made the corn bread, the other half made the beans and sausage. lol, what did y'all have?
