I started posting recipes
that show how I use super thrifty meals intermittently in our meal plans to help us stretch our extreme grocery budget. My goal is to serve delicious and nutritious
meals my girls want to eat and this simple and budget friendly pasta dish is a
pretty good one.
Easy Pasta Alfredo
1 pkg pasta
2 envelopes alfredo sauce
mix
2 cups milk
In a large pan cook pasta
according to package directions. Drain
pasta and set aside. In pan add milk and
sauce mix. Whisk until smooth, bring to
a boil, remove from heat. Toss pasta
into sauce. Serves 4 to 6.
I keep a couple packets
of store brand alfredo sauce on hand so my girls can make themselves a quick
lunch or supper. Leftover chicken diced
up and some veggies like peas or broccoli can be stirred in as well to make
this a heartier meal. Or heat up a can
of green beans or steam some frozen veggies to serve on the side.
Cost: Pasta 99¢ (sale price, I found them for49¢
each) + 2 sauce mix packets 45¢ each. For
less than $2 I made six servings of pasta which was two solid meals for two
hungry people.
