I served uncle ben’s ready to eat rice to my mother and husband and had the veggie pene pasta for myself. Then also had market fresh snow peas for another side. Each of these sides I just popped into the microwave for a couple of minutes each and then put them into bowls to serve.
The chicken was spicy! But very good! The breasts I bought were really big so my mom and I split one and we had one left over. There was enough leftovers from tonight that Steve and I will have a nice lunch tomorrow!
Total calories for the entire meal is 315. Total price for all 5 meals (including the 2 for tomorrow) is $15. That’s $3 per meal! Healthy, yummy, and inexpensive! And I use Walmart grocery pickup to grocery shop! Seriously don’t let people tell you it’s expensive to eat healthy! McDonald’s doesn’t feed you like this for this price!
