    My goal of creating this list was so that anyone could walk into Walmart with $10 and some change, and come out with enough ingredients for a healthy, tasty, and balanced meal enough to feed a family of 4. All of these recipes are fairly simple to cook and require no special appliances beyond what can be found in an average American home.

    Other Notes: 

    * The prices will vary depending on the Walmart in your location. However, I tested the pricing in several zip codes around the country, and the cost should be pretty consistent in the majority of areas. 
    * When creating this, I assumed the only accessible ingredients at home were salt, pepper, water and cooking oil. The recipes are also tasty as-is, but if you have extra ingredients from your pantry, I suggest adding them for more flavor and variety.
    * I have at least a few weeks worth of these lists, let me know if you want to see more

    This is very nicely done. Here is one I found last night that turned out quite good but comes in a little over $11.

    Cheese Tortellini $4.27, Jennie O Turkey $3.78, Italian Cheese $2.24, Montreal Steak Seasoning $1.36

    I make something very similar to this. Love it. It’s nice to see someone else likes the beef/poultry flavor combo.

    Even better, some of the seasonings will last several meals, stretching those dollars even further.

    Nice work!
