And not only is food more expensive than ever, but we all have less time than ever before. The solution to the problem is $3 Meals in Minutes . This collection of 250-plus recipes has main course entrees that are less than $3 a serving to prepare. That's less than the cost of a decent-size burger at a fast-food drive-through. And all can be prepared in less time than it takes to have a pizza delivered!

250+ cost-busting, simple, healthy recipes for great meals!

 

From traditional American favorites to popular ethnic foods such as Tex-Mex, Asian, and Italian, $3 Meals is brimming with scrumptious—and amazingly affordable—recipes the likes of Seafood Gumbo, Old-Fashioned Chicken and Dumplings, Shepherd’s Pie with Cheddar Potato Topping, and Southwest Spinach Loaf.
