The following recipe makes 8 servings at <$2.55 a piece!

Ingredients

All ingredients are organic, and vegan (excluding the chicken)!

  • 1 Pack 365 Everyday Value brand Spaghetti: $1.25
  • 2 Organic Chicken Breasts (omit or substitute for vegan/vegetarian recipe): $5.50
  • 1/2 Container Baby Bella Mushrooms: $1.50
  • 1 Container Baby Corn (fresh, not pickled): $4
  • 2 Cups Mixed Stir-frying Vegetables (i.e. broccoli, red bell pepper, green onions, water chestnuts, snap peas): $3
  • 1/4 Large Onion: $.35
  • 3 small cloves of garlic: $.10
  • 1-2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce: $.50-$1
  • 1 Bottle 365 Everyday Value brand Peanut Sauce: $3
  • Black Pepper: $.20
  • Red Chili Flakes: $.25
  • If you aren’t a fan of spicy flavors, omit the red chili flakes and black pepper and add roasted, unsalted cashews or peanuts for a more nutty flavor. Kaffir lime, ginger, bean sprouts, and basil are also tasty ingredients, found in many Thai dishes, that will add flavor without adding spice.

Notes
*All ingredients were purchased at Whole Foods in NYC. Prices were calculated by dividing the price by the amount/number of servings I used and rounding up. i.e. an onion costs $1.34 and I used 1/4th of it. $1.34/4=$.33 and rounded to the nearest nickel is $.35. The price of spices are very liberal estimates as I don’t have access to a scale.
*For an even cheaper version, substitute fresh ingredients for frozen and buy in bulk.
