5 Easy and Affordable Dinner Recipes

May 5, 2022

Check out these FIVE recipes below that caught my eye! I chose these recipes because they’re affordable and seems easy to make! Definitely my kind of recipes…WIN, WIN!

I did an approximate cost summary for each recipe. I hope it’s helpful since sometimes you can go to a store with a recipe and have no idea how much it will be until you get to the register. There are probably some ingredients in each recipe that you already have, but I added them just in case. What I didn’t include are some ingredients that most people have in their home already such as pepper and margarine. 😉

I made one of them already, but can’t wait to make the others!


1. Baked Rigatoni from Semi Homemade Recipes – I ended up making this, and it was a hit with the kids! YASSS!! Super easy to make, and a couple of the kids had 3 helpings! Even Mariah who is a picky eater had 2 helpings.

I did make this dish using 2 boxes of rigatoni because the kids were going to eat this after practice. They’re always really hungry when they get home. I was right because there was only one scoop left at cleanup!

3. Taco Pasta Recipe – If I made this, I’ll probably separate portions of it with 1 with beans and 1 without. I know the kids will complain if they saw beans…lol.

Celebrated the USA’s 250th! 🇺🇸 My family came here from the Philippines when I was 3 yrs old. I’m so thankful for the sacrifices that were made for us to be here and for the life we’ve been blessed to build!

I forgot that it was Earth Day this week and the kids quickly reminded me that I never made my yearly dirt cups. Proof that even as they get older, it’s still the little traditions they hold onto the most. 😊

Is anyone else obsessed with this cake? Found out about it from my friend Lindsay! It’s so good! Comes in small, large, quarter sheet, or half sheet sizes. @wholefoods (My birthday was in January and am finally getting around to posting this😉.)

Uhhh sorry I can’t relate. 🤭
All the kids and I have to do is show up, grab our drinks, and eat. 
Don’t worry, I’m not that worthless.😉
I’m always on clean up duty after dinner.
