Season 2021

01. 1 Dollar Sushi Rolls

Sushi is commonly one of the most amazing yet expensive items on a menu. BUT if you make it at home using these instructions, I think you can shave it down to around 1 dollar per serving. Sounds like a win to me.

05. The 2 Dollar Curry (Butter Chicken)

Okay, curry can be expensive both at a restaurant and when homemade. In order to make this happen, we have to simplify the recipe, maximize the flavor and make this dish for the very cheapest price physically possible...without losing flavor at all.

No, this isn't instant ramen so don’t ask. I'm talking about the gourmet ramen that costs $15 or more for a single bowl! That's just unacceptable so I'll show you how to make homemade gourmet miso ramen for just 3 dollars that'll make all categories of ramen from fancy to instant look bad.

08. Giant 4 Dollar Homemade Fajitas Meal

Ah yes, the TexMex classic, fajitas. We all know it. We all love it. However, going out with friends and family trying to enjoy a steamy plate of meat, beans, vegetables, and warm tortillas that you just want to cuddle up in are so darn expensive!! Enough is enough of spending over 15 bucks a serving for fajitas. That's why we are making chicken fajitas at home, but wayyyy cheaper. Like $4 per serving cheaper.

10. The 2 Dollar Burrito

You can go to the freezer section and get a burrito for $1, $2, or $2.50 but does it honestly taste that good? NO! Not to mention when eating out these plump boys are $15 and that's just not right! Do not worry though, we're going to fix that with the perfect 2 dollar burrito.

13. 1 Dollar Fancy Mac and Cheese

The average cost of fancy mac and cheese is 7 bucks and above. Obviously, store bought is much cheaper, but making your own oven mac and cheese with multiple kinds of cheese can be done for as little as 1 dollar per serving. And it's better than 99 percent of the other mac and cheeses out there. Take it or leave it bud.
