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?
