Cooking with the Cheapo – salmon dinner

photo.JPG$1 for the half-pound portion of salmon, white rice was almost-free with overage at Dominicks yesterday and the pea pods were a complete freebie (I was dropping off “stuff” at the food pantry and there was a case of snow peas being tossed out – nothing wrong with them, but they were closing for the day and no one had wanted them…except me!!!). If I were to put a high value on this meal, including butter and gas heat (seasoning was the free McCormick spice card from Dominicks, pre-flood) I’d say $1.25?  maybe?

  1. Totally amazing- the food pantry throw out is the best.
    The price you got on the salmon is now for you the price to beat. You do not have Papadeaux restuarants
    in your area( but they are laying them out fast and furious )–if your were to get this there you would be paying beaucoup $$$’s. I am so impressed.

    • We have Papadeaux – we were just at the one in Westmont a few weeks ago. And I don’t think as much of them as I used to, frankly. Service was great, but the food, idk, seemed like it used to be tastier.
