$5 Dinner for 5! (Plus: Delicious Garlic Butter Bread Recipe)

FIVE DOLLAR DINNER!

That’s what we had tonight and I just had to tell you about it!

Here’s how we spent so little on this dinner:

Pasta Sauce was on sale for $1 per jar

Spaghetti Noodles: $1

Turkey Meat: 1 Lb for only $1.50*

Loaf of bread: $0.50 **

Garlic Butter topping (See recipe below): Less than $1

Total: Dinner for 5 hungry men = Less than $5!!!

*When grocery shopping, look for meat that is on sale. King Soopers/Kroger was selling 1 pound packages of turkey for $1.50 because they were about to expire. I bought several packages and put them in my freezer.

**Did you know that Jimmy Johns sells day old bread only $.50 per loaf? We get these on a regular basis to make subs at home, or for garlic bread, egg casseroles, etc. They can be frozen too!

 

GARLIC BREAD:

• 1/2 stick butter
• 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
• 1 TB garlic
• 1 TB Italian Seasoning
• Thick slices from a loaf of bread

Soften butter, add other ingredients and mix.

Spread a thick layer on each slice of bread. Toast in oven for about 5 minutes. Enjoy!
