I thought I would share a pretty cheap winter meal with you!
We got some Philadelphia cream cheese (there's really no other way to go) for $.50/package. We had 12 and used them for bagels and such, but one of my favorite ways was this:
^^You can see it a little better in this one although it's darker.
Soup! I love soup! I love them because they can be so fast and so warming during the cold winter months.
This particular recipe is adopted from Kelsey. It is basic, so you can make it that way or add whatever you'd like.
I think we used about 10-12 potatoes peeled and cut into bite sized pieces. Boil until tender.
Add:
2 packages of cream cheese (and we usually use any that we have opened as well)--melt
1 can of chicken broth
1 can of corn
This time, we added some opened frozen peas--It was about 1/2 of a bag.
We had this tonight and invited our neighborly friend, Jonathan, over. His wife is out of town, so we have been inviting him over. It's been fun! I'm so sad they are moving to the "west side" of town.
Steven and I have figured that it is about 4 dollars to make this. It gave us 7 servings tonight and we have extras (probably 3 more?)
Enjoy!
