Sloppy Joes:

Sloppy joes are a classic favorite and a breeze to whip up. For a quick and wallet-friendly version, you'll spend approximately $6. If you prefer a fresher, slower-cooked option, budget around $15. Remember, raiding your pantry and opting for store brands can significantly slash your costs.

Chicken Enchiladas:

Warm, savory, and oh-so-satisfying, chicken enchiladas are a cinch to prepare. Using rotisserie chicken speeds up the process, with the entire meal costing between $11 and $15. The price variation depends on whether you opt for whole or pre-shredded chicken. Raiding your own kitchen supplies can help keep costs down.

French Bread Pizza:

For a fun twist on a classic favorite, indulge in French bread pizza. This delightful treat will set you back approximately $8-9, depending on toppings. Don't forget to repurpose any leftover onions and bell peppers as delicious pizza toppings!
