[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have having pork chops and rice tonight. 
Pork chops — around $18, from the farmers market, bone-in, 1.87 lbs worth. Expensive, but delicious!
1 onion — maybe $1? 
1 can stewed tomatoes — ~$1.50
1 cup (uncooked) rice — maybe $.50?
A few spices — lets say $.50

So around $22 for the main dish, which will feed 2 people dinner tonight, plus 1 leftover dinner of pork chop and rice, and 1 leftover lunch of just rice.

Will also have 1 piece of corn on the cob for my son, which I think was $.75, some applesauce from my freezer (made in the fall, maybe it has $.50 worth of apples in the jar?)

I will also have a salad with lettuce and herbs from my garden, so like 1 cent worth of seeds, and maybe $.25 worth of ingredients for vinaigrette.

It will take about 1 hour 10 minutes of cooking, mostly unattended simmering after I brown the chops, onions, and assemble everything. Then maybe 10 minutes of work at the end to get the corn cooked and the salad made.
