Welcome to DivaTribe

 

A diva accepts herself as she is right now and strives to be even better.
She doesn't change who she is to fit someone else's idea of what she ought to be.
She reaches for her own ideal sense of whom she wants to be.
She's strong; she's courageous; she's creative.

I have a few favorite \"cheap meals\" but thought I\'d like to hear some of your ideas!  

Here\'s some of mine:

-Ramen noodles (with a can of spinach thrown in... the kids and I love... do we need to explain how cheap?) bouncing lol
-Salmon patties and mac\'n cheese
-Big pan of BBQ pork
-Chicken and noodles... which leftovers to chicken noodle soup
-stuffed baked potatos
I\'m sure I\'m forgetting some good ones

One that I like is Kraft mac & cheese (follow the directions) then while it\'s still warm stir in a can of Campbell\'s condensed cream of celery soup (do not add water) and just about a tablespoon or two of milk to get the consistency right - it should look like mac & cheese, not soup, but you don\'t want it too thick either.

Some easy favorites around here:
[ul]Breakfast for dinner - scrambled eggs and toast, or pancakes (we keep homemade powdered mix in the frig).

Mac and cheese (I like the white mac and cheese at Trader Joe\'s) and a side of vegetables or fruit, or a dinner salad.

Canned soup and grilled cheese sandwiches.[/ul]

Great Post! I am always looking for new quick & cheap dinner ideas!

Some of my favorite quick & cheap dinners are:

Egg noodles with butter, garlic & squash

\"kitchen\" stir fry (basically whatever veggies, nuts, meat & rice I have on hand)

\"leftover\" salad - a big salad topped with cut up pieces of whatever meat is leftover from dinner the night before

Eggs scrambled with cheese and whatever veggies I have in the fridge

My friend swears by casseroles for easy, cheap dinners, one of these days I will have to get some of her recipes!
