Answer 1

It would help if we knew more details.  

Answer 2

For just one meal?  Dinner tonight?  Go buy a steak to grill, a russet potato to bake, and a small salad from the grocery store's salad bar.

Answer 3

Here's some ideas for you (I also am on a limited budget)

1. Spaghetti and meat sauce with green salad and garlic bread

2. Meatloaf (always easy and cheap to make)

3. Marinate chicken breast in teriaki sauce and broil (or grill) serve with pineapple slices.

4. Beef franks (not hotdogs) and baked beans (my favorite!)

5. Macaroni and cheese.

Then there's always the dollar menu at McDonalds.

Answer 4
