Grilled Bison burgers
Grilled squash
Sliced tomatoes
Total cost per person - $1.66
Not to shabby, heh? The only thing I had to purchase for this meal was the bison, the rest of the items I already had on hand. We grew the squash and tomatoes in our garden. I found the bison on sale for $4.99/lb, which is about $1/lb more than beef. This is not something we have all the time, but I am not supposed to eat beef, and ground turkey gets pretty old after a while. And, we have enough leftover for mine and Lindsay's lunch tomorrow!!
Checking out at the grocery store can be very discouraging at times, but when you break down your spending per meal, you can really get a grasp on how much things cost and how much you really are saving. There is no way I could go to McDonald's and get enough food for two meals for $5!!
