Cheap Dollar Store Eats

Everyone is trying to stretch their food dollar. We went to the Dollar Tree store after work and I challenged myself to make a meal from ingredients I found there.

So I found some ham, stir-fry veggies, rice, and some teriyaki sauce, so I did a ham stir-fry.

So I put in the veggies, ham, a scrambled egg and rice and after a few minutes of cooking it turned out alright. I should have added more fat and some garlic and pepper. Otherwise, it was a decent first attempt. All total, it was just over $9 to make for two people. I will try it again sometime.

Pro Tip: Ballin On A Budget

If you wanna be “ballin’ on a budget” go to a dollar store and spend $50 or so. It will make you feel like a billionaire or something like that.
