5-pack bratwurst on sale for $2.99. 5-lb bag of potatoes regular price is $2.99. 5lb Bag of frozen green beans from Costco is $8. Considering the bratwurst gets you 5 meals of protein, the potatoes will get you about 10 meals of carbs, and the beans will get you 10 meals of fiber/veg....1 bratwurst, 1 potato, and 1/2 lb of green beans per meal ends up costing: $1.70 per meal. This is one of my many go-to weekday meals.
