Decided that we needed to cut back on our spending. What does this mean? No more eating out....well, not as much at least. Challenge: try cooking meals for less than five dollars per serving. And the meal has to be tasty and healthy.

There are so many recipes out there but I need ones that are healthy and cheap. Here goes....
