This Week In My Frugal Kitchen

Saturday

CheeseburgersCabbage & Kale salad
Sunday & Monday

MostaccioliSalad (not pictured)Garlic Bread
This is what you would call a truly frugal meal. I used pasta bought on sale (50¢), Italian sausage bought on markdown ($1.99), sauce - crash & burn (49¢), and made garlic bread out of brioche buns (38¢) on markdown. So, less than $3 and there is plenty left for another meal. 
Tuesday
When I did my pantry inventory last week I knew I had everything on hand to make Bean & Cheese Enchiladas, although I didn't have any enchilada sauce. 
I did have a package of California dried chilis however, and so I used a variation of this recipe to make my own enchilada sauce. 
I think I like it even better than canned enchilada sauce.

Sunday
I made a large stockpot filled with chili. Enough to last a few days at least. I think we will have chili tacos for dinner on Monday night.
