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.

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.

Thankful we got to spend some time together this morning enjoying love letters, sweet treats, yummy drinks, and fun surprises! Then it was off to kids sports games.. one being out of the state! Blaine & I snuck in a date night last night since we had to spend Valentine’s Day apart. Last slide was a text he sent me after he left town.🥹
