I feel like when you Google budget recipes, you get the same recipes over and over. And I like them, but I’m always aiming to try new things. I was able to find some budget recipes that feel fresh and new and I truly wish I did know sooner! So I’m here to share them with you so you don’t have to keep searching!
Canned Chicken Chicken Tortilla Soup
This canned chicken tortilla soup was created because I really should have gone grocery shopping. It’s extremely pantry friendly but also hearty and full of flavor. You’d never know it was made with canned chicken unless I told you!
Huevos Rancheros
This Huevos Rancheros Recipe is a fun breakfast of a sleeper budget dinner! How fun and inexpensive an idea for your dinner table!
Chicken Diane
Apparently this Chicken Diane Recipe is named after the Roman Goddess of game, Diana. Well, I thank her because the flavor on this one is worthy of a fancy and expensive restaurant!
Poor Mama Cheeseburgers
I think these were originally called Poor Man Cheeseburgers but my notes app kept changing the name to Poor Mama Cheeseburgers so that’s what we are going with. These were a huge hit with the kids and so easy to make! No flipping burgers or looking for the prefect doneness! These are easy peasy!
Cornbread Enchilada Casserole
This Cornbread Enchilada casserole is incredibly pantry friendly! I love that you use a box of Jiffy mix to top it off! The sauce is made with canned tomato sauce so it’s super easy to throw together! And it’s not spicy (of course kick it up a notch with some cayenne if that’s your jam!), my kids adored this!
