If you need a cheap, inexpensive meal then this recipe is it! With only 3 ingredients, you can feed at least 4 adults for $1 per serving.
I have price shopped the items for you from my local grocery store and depending on if you purchase ground beef or ground turkey, the price per serving ranges from $1 to $1.50. Either one of these amounts is an amazing price for a meal.
The shopping list below has ground turkey which is an amazing price. Plus, the recipe calls for only 1/2 a bag of frozen corn, which would even lessen the price even more.
The shopping list below has ground beef for the meat, but is still a great price with only $1.50 per serving! An actually the recipe only calls for 1/2 the bag of frozen corn, so the price would even be a little cheaper! 🙂
