Tonight's dinner was a Mexican Casserole! It was a HIT with the hubby!
RECIPE....Total cost for this meal = $1.83 and you even get dessert out of it!
1 can Pillsbury Grands buttermilk biscuits - final cost w/coupons = .22
1 LB. Ground Beef - Got on sale .77 per pound
1 can Hot Rotel - final cost w/coupons .16
1 cup corn - leftover from dinner.....but yes, it was FREE Green Giant steamers w/coupon
1 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. garlic salt
2 tsp. onion powder
1 Tbsp. chili powder - I use New Mexico chili powder
1 cup shredded cheese (We prefer colby/monterey blend) .44
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cook ground beef with all spices. Take 6 of the biscuits and cut them into quarters. When ground beef is cooked move it to a bowl and add Rotel and corn. Then add the quartered biscuits and lightly stir to make sure the biscuits are coated with mixture. Add mixed ingredients to a greased 9x13 pan. Bake for 20 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown. Add cheese to top and bake another 10-15 minutes. We topped it with shredded lettuce (from our garden), sour cream (.09) and salsa (Free w/coupon).
REMEMBER???? You had two biscuits leftover from the 8 roll you just used for dinner! Here is a quick, easy and delish dessert!
2 leftover biscuits from the ones you used from dinner - price is included in the dinner
Cinnamon/Sugar mix - maximum probably .15
Heat approximately 1 - 2 inches of vegetable oil in a frying pan or sauce pan. Take the remaining biscuits and cut each one into 8 pieces. Once the oil is hot enough drop the biscuits "bites" in. Let fry for approximately 1-2 minutes or until nice golden brown. Remove from oil and roll in the cinnamon/sugar mixture. Ever had a churro....well, that is what these remind me of just a little softer texture on the outside...oh boy are they YUMMY!
