While thinking about the second frugal recipe to post for this week, i came across this one on a blog. It claims to cost only $6 and even lesser if any of the ingredients are bought on discount/sale. So lets see how to make this tasty yet cost efficiet country Pie.
To make country pie you need 1lb ground beef, 14oz of spaghetti sauce, mozzarella cheese and 3-4 cups of uncooked white minute rice. As a first step, brown and then drain the ground beef, add half cup of sauce to the meat. Spread this evenly into a 13×9 dish. Add the remaining sauce to the rice. Spread the rice on the meat. Sprinkle cheese on top. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes at 350. Now remove the foil and bake it uncovered for 15 minutes. Let it stand for 10 minutes. Now your pie is ready to serve with garlic bread or just bread& butter.It can also be served with some veggies or a salad.
The blog states that it serves a family of 3 for two nights (dinner).
