Smoked sausage, potatoes, bell pepper, Greek seasoning, cheddar and sour cream.
I’ve made this countless times in my life but today I decided to pan fry instead of bake it. The bell peppers came from my garden. I used bacon grease instead of less flavored options.
Cost per person: $2.75
Tip: do not buy Hillshire Farms smoked sausage. It’s overpriced, fully emulsified with no fat chunks and has been shrinkflationed down from a pound to just 12 to 14 oz depending on the particular flavor you want.
Seriously look at the other brands lower on the display. These may even be more local companies. Walmart has the refrigerated floor cases with all those processed meats. At mine they have Star smoked sausage. Two pounds for $5.62, that’s like 40% off per pound compared to Hillshire Farms. And it’s better quality.
He’s a lumberjack and he’s okay. He sleeps all night, and he works all day.
Leave my mom out of this.
I do something similar but scramble some egg in at the last minute.
Looks great! I’d be throwing some eggs on that!
Looks great, but imagine this but chorizo.
You’d want to go with Jack cheese for that.
That’s comfort food right there:)
I would love to find a recipe that costs so little, all the recipes that are that cheap per serving for me are cooked in commercial sized quantities where I live. Looks awesome!
Where are you? How much is a bag of potatoes?
A kg of potatoes where I live fluctuate between $2 to $8. It’s seasonal.
A single kilogram? So that’s at the bottom end about the price I pay and at the top end a whole lot more. What starches do you have that are cheap?
Camote, Ñampi, Tiquisque or Plantains. I’m down South and Honestly I miss good potatoes.
Lots of options there but I’m only familiar with cooking sweet potatoes (Camote). Not as flexible as potatoes for the variety of textures you can get out of it but still a good range. Make French fries but coat them in corn starch first to make them crispy. Roast or boil and then char them on a grill for some crispy bits.
I’m planning on planting them for next year. They should grow good here and the greens are usable too.
