If you read the Pig post then you proabaly remember the cheap chciken and chicken helper. Usually lunches are sandwiches, raw fruits and veggies, salads or soups. I wanted some good, hearty, stick to your ribs food today. It is only 30ish for the high and that is COLD for this southern girl! I know many of you are much colder and all I can say is move South! LOL! Just kidding!
So this is what I came up with. I fixed the chicken alfredo helper as directed BUT
I only added one very large breast of chicken instead of the four it called four. It was plenty! I also added a can of small tender english peas. It was delicious!
1 piece of chicken $1
chicken helper $.70
1 can peas $.33
Total cost of lunch for 3 for 2 days $2.03! Yippee! Love it when you eat healthy on the cheap!
Blessings!!!

Wow, can't beat that! Especially for 4 people.
Mmmm..chicken alfredo sounds go good. Though I have to admit just about anything sounds good when I'm dieting..:)
WOW, TALK ABOUT SOME CHEAP BUT GOOD EATS. I PLAN ON GOING THE PIGGLY WIGGLY TOMORROW TO STOCK UP THE FREEZER WITH CHICKEN. MY HUSBAND DOES NOT EAT HAMBURGER SO WE MOSTLY EAT CHICKEN. I ALWAYS HAVE MY MAMA AND SISTER ON THE LOOKOUT FOR CHICKEN THAT IS ON SALE. I ALSO LOVE GREAT DEALS AT THE GROCERY STORE SOME OF THE PRICES ARE CRAZY RIDICULOUS...PASS ALONG ANY OTHER SALES THAT YOU KNOW OF...THANKS!!!

Yum! Can I have lunch at your house :)
I love stretching meat like that- I always see how little I can get away with so I can stretch that buck a little further. Way to go with your inexpensive dish, Marva! Am so proud of you!
