Soups and salads
check out http://www.allrecipes.com/ Angel hair pasta, jar of cream sause and shrimp (61-70 variety, they are cheap and tasty.)
Many kinds of beans, pinto, cranberry, butter, etc.
Cornbread, slaw, pickel relish, or chow-chow is good with them.
get some sirloin steak already cubed into small peices if you can or else just cut it your self. Fry in a skillet with some vegtable or peanut oil (peanut is the best) stirring often untill done (about 10 min. While doing that boil up some water for instant rice according to the box directions. when the meat is done mix up some brown gravy packets according to the directions and add to the meat. heat over low heat untill as thick as you want. for serving just place some rice on a plate and spoon the meat gravy mix over it. if you want a good side dish just steam or boil and drain some fresh or frozen brockli untill just tender but not mushy. you can serve the veggies plain or with cheese or any other topping you like. (i like ranch dressing) takes about 15 min to prepare and if you hit the right sales will feed 4-6 for about 7 bucks. is also fairly filling Throw some frozen ravioli in a baking dish, add prepared spaghetti sauce (roasted red pepper is my fav. from Trader Joes) and add lots of shredded cheese. Bake for abou 40 min. on 350 degrees. It's super good and easy. Bake a loaf of garlic bread with it for additional item.
