5 Photos of Spring Meals in a Collage.

Last summer I challenged myself to develop five meals that each cost around $5 to make (that’s $5 total – not per person).  What a challenge it was!  Groceries are pretty expensive where I live and I had to get creative to make it work!

But I did it!

I followed the summer recipes up with $5 meals for fall and winter, and now, spring!

In the meantime, all of our current subscribers and any new sign ups will receive the $5 Meals for Spring chapter and access to each previous season’s meals.

$5 Meals For Spring – What’s Included

For the spring $5 Meals I used the same tools and tips that I did for the other seasons – made full use of sales, tried to shop my pantry and made sure I was using mainly seasonal ingredients.  These tricks helped me keep costs low.

What if you could cut your grocery budget without giving up delicious food?! 

What could you do with the extra money in your wallet?

Plan a wedding?  Go on a trip?  Save money to buy a house?
