$4.98 Dinner for Two in 20 Minutes

Last night, picked up a pack of discounted chicken thighs, a bag of frozen mixed veggies, and a box of instant rice—all for under five bucks. The trick is to check those clearance stickers and never skip the frozen aisle. Cooking at home doesn’t have to mean bland or boring, either. Threw everything in a pan with some soy sauce packets (leftover from takeout), and it came out way better than expected. No need for fancy ingredients or hours in the kitchen. It’s all about working with what’s on sale and stretching it. The best part? #Quick meal #Budget eating #Share my meal #Saving money #Food
