Cheap Meal - $.50 per serving

Now, I'm not a cook, but I do try. I thought I would break down the cost of everything to show you how cheap you can eat at home vs. going out to eat.

Chicken Thighs (4ct) - $1.10 (Bought on manager's special, and used $1 coupon) = $0.28 each

Knorr Rice (2.5 servings)
- $0.10 = $0.04 per serving

Roll (12ct) - $1.00 (Bought on manager's special) = $0.08 each

Carrots - ~$0.10

Total for this meal was $.50. So Brian and I can eat for $1.00 total. Had we gone out to eat, would could easily spend $20...depending on the restaurant. It doesn't look like a lot of food, but it was :) Any left over meat, I will make into chicken soup later on in the week.
