3-XXL El Monterey Beef and Bean Burritos (in the deli section of WM-$1 each----these are 10 inches long!!!)
1 box of Zataran's Spanish Rice ($1 per box, Q for .75/2.... making these .63 each)
Blackeye pea Salsa (See recipe below) 3.97 (MADE A BUNCH!) used 1/2- $2
Kraft Shredded 2% Cheese $1.98 at WM (used 1 cup $1.00)
Sour Cream- Nominal probably about .25
Chips 1.25 used 1/3 of bag .42
Approximately $7.25 for dinner for a family of five and then some leftovers!
This was a great meal and EASY, EASY, EASY and very inexpensive
The burritos were so big that I cut them in half and let everyone start off with 1/2 (which is the size of a normal burrito) then if they wanted more then they could go back for more. We had left over burrito and rice for my husbands lunch today!!
Black Eyed Pea Mexican Salsa (Thanks Connie!)
1 can of black eyed peas (drained) (.58)
1 can of corn (drained) (.50)
1 can of diced tomatoes with green chilies (.50)
1 Green Pepper (.69)
2 green onions (had these in the fridge....probably .20)
1-cup (8 oz) Zesty Italian Dressing (had this on shelf...price?? 1.98...used 1/2, $1?)
1 jalapeno pepper chopped fine .50
Mix together and let chill for a few hours*** before serving.
I made this while I was preparing lunch and stuck it in the fridge...it is quick and easy!
Now to find something to do with the leftover black eyed pea salsa.....Lunch over rice...maybe???
