Big meal ideas!

I have a friend who asked for some frugal meal ideas for her church lunch/supper during a training that they have coming up after Easter.  So here are some ideas I shared with her.. Just wondering if you have more to add to this list??

  

Some ideas I have to share:
(Depending what is on sale/Weather) 

• Fried rice

A family favorite in our home

• Chicken or pork in mushroom gravy with rice, and salad... 
• Stew and bread and salad...
• Ham and scalloped potatoes with or without peas and salad...  
• Spaghetti, garlic bread and salad... 
• Stroganoff (and  you guessed it.. Salad!) lol
• Chicken thighs or whole chicken i.e. Kitchen Chicken

 

• Tuna casserole 
• Pulled pork (buns or tortillas), cole slaw
• Taco salad
• Chili 
• Pasta e fagiole
• Red rice/similar to jambalaya or paella
• Frogmore stew

Some Pampered Chef recipes

• Confetti pasta salad 
• Tortellini with garden vegetables

And of course, ANYTHING in a crock pot!

Veggies for the roast

 

I look forward to hearing from you.  Enjoy!!!
