I made Potato Noodle Ball soup last night, it's one of my favorites.
dice up potatoes into bite sized pieces, add enough water to cover potatoes and boil them until done. Add some milk and then if I have velvetta I add a chunk of that as well. Then I mix 2 or 3 eggs with flour like you would make homemade noodles and drop teaspoon sized into the boiling water, reduce heat and cook for another 10minutes or so until noodles are done. Cheap and soooo good!!
One of my kids favorites is quesadilla night, we just put some tortillas with shredded cheese heat then up on the stove or microwave and then have sour cream and salsa on the side to dip into. Tomato soup and grilled cheese or sometimes it's grilled peanut butter and jelly sandwiches those are yummy as well and something different to try.
Ham and bean soup with corn bread is another inexpensive but yummy meal.
My son loves this simple recipe, chili cheese dog casserole. Take torillas and put a hot dog and some cheese in them and roll them up and put into a 9x13 greased pan. Take a large can of chili or 2small ones and spread over the top of them, top with shredded cheddar cheese and bake at 350 for about 20-30minutes until cheese melts. (optional chopped onion to garnish or add on top of chili)
Baked spaghetti-
3/4 pound lean ground beef
1 (16 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce

DIRECTIONS

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Mix in pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
