💸 Budget Bites That Don’t Taste Cheap

If you’ve got the basics at home—oil, butter, seasonings—you’re already halfway there. I’m sharing affordable meals that stretch two budget-friendly proteins: chicken and ground beef. We’re talkin’ chicken breasts or thighs (they’re usually the same price!) and classic ground beef. With these as your base, pasta is your best friend. You can go old school with chicken Alfredo or Instant Pot spaghetti... OR level it up with flavor-packed spins like Mexican chicken fajita pasta or taco spaghetti 🌮🍝 Some recipes call for an extra ingredient or two outside my core 20-item list, but don’t sweat it—I’ll always flag an easy swap! #BudgetMeals #CheapEats #EasyWeeknightDinners #ChickenRecipes
