[quote=Anonymous]Have you bought chickpeas lately? Or lentils. A few bucks for huge servings.  Risotto is available at Trader Joe's.  Chocolate mousse is made with chocolate, cream, eggs, sugar -- all ingredients easily found at Safeway or Giant.  Vanilla ice cream is not budget friendly?  Since when did cheese and apples become rich man's fare?  Cilantro -- Giant, endive -- Giant, oranges -- Giant.  If you caramelize peantus and popcorn it is cheap cheap cheap.  Brownies require butter, flour, eggs, baking soda, salt, and Baker's chocolate -- let me rush to Whole Foods right away!  Lemon mouse is made with heavy cream, six lemons, eggs, and sugar.  For ginger cookies you need 2 tbs fresh ginger -- OMG two dollars! -- molasses, brown and white sugar, flour, cinnamon, eggs, butter, nutmeg, powdered ginger and pepper.

It is not my fault that PPs don't know the first thing about cooking good food.

More suggestions: bacon wrapped prunes roasted in the oven as a starter.  Wait -- prunes must be imported by air, far too costly to consider!

Onion soup -- beef stock, butter, onions.  Throw in meat or a veg for extra flavor.[/quote]
