Make your grocery budget stretch further and still eat well with these 30 delicious family meals under $10!

If you, like me, are looking at your bank account with dismay each month as your grocery budget gets bigger and bigger, I’m here to help! Groceries just seem to be getting more and more expensive by the day, and it is getting harder and harder to feed your family good food on a shoestring budget. When my older kids were little, my husband and I were both students, and I got really good at stretching every penny of my grocery budget. I’m excited to share this collection of delicious, easy to make recipes that can feed a family on the cheap. These 30 meals under $10 are the perfect way to make the most of those grocery dollars!

A few caveats before I share the recipes – I did actually go through and calculate how much these recipes would cost to make using ingredients from my local grocery store. I will add that I almost exclusively use Costco rotisserie chicken for any recipe that uses cooked chicken. It’s very inexpensive, and I like to buy several at a time, pull off all of the meat, and separate it into meal-sized portions in freezer containers. If you’re using fresh or frozen chicken, your price may be a little higher. I also always buy ground beef in bulk, usually for less than $6.50/pound. Obviously if you’re using organic ingredients, your prices might also be a little higher. I still feel pretty confident that you can make these recipes for around $10 or less!
