My great-aunt fed all 5 of us on about $4 total with this late summer supper. Just 3 ingredients and not a bite leftover.
My mother-in-law used to set this out every fall. Stretched $8 and change into a spread for 12, and leftovers were gone by breakfast.
My great-aunt fed all 6 of us on under $4 with this hearty old recipe. Nobody ever left the table hungry.
