I’ve been having so much fun being back to deal-shopping at Kroger again! (If you are new here, I love shopping the markdowns at Kroger! Here’s more details on that.)

Here’s what I got:

• 4 bags of frozen chicken
• 1 bag of potatoes
• 4 Kevin’s meals
• 1 box red beans & rice
• 1 roast
• 1 bag of onions
• 2 tubs of lettuce
• 1 bag of carrots
• 1 frozen pizza
• 1 tub whipped cream cheese
• 2 packages of turkey sausage
• 1 tub cheese tortellini
• 1 can pasta sauce
• Family size Hawaiian Rolls
• 2 bags Purely Elizabeth granola

I spent $113 on all of this and came up with 12 meals to make from this! I’d love to hear other ideas you have of what I can make from this:

12 Meal Ideas

• Roast with Potatoes & Carrots
• Marinated Chicken with Mashed Potatoes
• Easy Baked Chicken with Cheesy Hashbrowns (I have cheese on hand.)
• Sausage, Potatoes, Onions, Carrots (this will be for a night when it’s just Jesse and me and the younger kids)
• Red Beans & Rice (boxed mix) with Sausage (this will be for a night when it’s just Jesse and me and the younger kids)
• Kevin’s Meals — this will be enough for two meals (we serve these with rice)
• Cheesy Potato Soup and Rolls (I already have the ham and cheese on hand.)
• Pizza (we used this for dinner one night when it was just me and the younger kids)
• Tortellini Layered with Pasta Sauce and Cheese (I already have the cheese on hand.)
• Chicken Broccoli Rice Casserole (I already have the other ingredients on hand.)
• Chicken Quesadillas (I already have tortillas and cheese on hand.)

What other ideas do you have for things I can make with these groceries? I’d love to hear!

Amazon Prime Student: 6 Months FREE for 18-24 Year Olds

Just in case you didn’t know, Amazon offers a FREE 6-month membership of Amazon Prime to 18-24 year olds or college students!

Just go here and verify your age to sign up.

You will get access to all the regular perks of Prime! That includes FREE 2-day shipping, Prime video streaming (cheaper than Netflix!), Kindle Lending Library, and more.

Other perks you might not know about!

You’ll also get access to exclusive deals and promotions for 18-24 year olds and college students — many of which you might not even know about! Here are just a few highlights:

1. Free GrubHub Membership

One of the newest perks is that you get a FREE GrubHub membership for the lifetime of your Amazon Prime Student membership — which means you get free delivery on all orders over $12, 10% cash back on pick-up orders, plus extra savings! This is a HOT perk and is typically $9.99/month!

2. Prime Video Channels for just $0.99/Month

These are regularly anywhere from $4.99-$10.99/month, so this is a really great savings!

3. Prime Video Streaming

Speaking of streaming, you get access to Prime Video — which at the student rate is significantly cheaper than Netflix! For the first 6 months, it’s free with your trial. After that, if you opt for the annual subscription at half price ($59), it’s like paying just $4.92 per month for your video streaming!

4. Two Months of free Kindle Unlimited

As a Prime member, you get a FREE one-month Kindle Unlimited membership! This is a $20 value and gives you access to over 700,000 ebooks and thousands of audiobooks

5. Amazon Music Unlimited for just $0.99/month

For an entire year, you’ll get Amazon Music Unlimited for just $0.99/month for an entire year. This is way cheaper than any other music streaming out there! And it’s typically $4.99/month, so this is a great savings!

6. Free Homework Help

As a Prime member, you’ll get one FREE month of CourseHero — where you can get 24/7 homework help. This is a $40 value!

7. Savings on college essentials

You’ll also get exclusive savings on items like video games, phone cases and accessories, computers and accessories, health & personal care, snacks & groceries, apparel, and more.

8. Travel savings of up to 10% off flights.

As a Prime member, you’ll also get access to travel discounts through StudentUniverse. You’ll get 10% off already discounted flights and 10% back on hotel purchases!

Prime Membership at a 50% Discount

On top of all these great perks, you’ll always get your Prime membership at a 50% discount of the regular price, as long as you’re 18-24 years old or a student!

So after your 6-month trial is up, you can continue with a Prime membership at a 50% discount off the regular price!! That means you’ll pay just $59 annually or $6.49 monthly. SUCH an amazing deal to get all the perks of Prime + more!

But even if you don’t want to pay for the membership, at least take advantage of the six months for FREE to get all these perks for a little while!

Note: If you don’t want to continue after the free trial, be sure to cancel before your trial is up so that you don’t get auto-charged.

I originally got this recipe from here, but I doubled it and made some changes to the ratios to make it more frugal.  I almost always have all of these ingredients on hand, so this is a go-to meal when it’s 5pm and I’m feeling uninspired as far as what to serve for dinner.

Tonight I served it with a simple tossed salad, since I found some huge tubs of organic spring mix at Aldi that were reduced down to $2 each, but it pairs well with so many different sides  — and it can also stand alone as an entire meal in and of itself! 

We’re back from a summer break with this $10 Dinner Ideas series, brought to you by Brigette on our team! Each week, she shares easy, delicious, and affordable family-friendly dinner ideas that cost less than $10 to make, use everyday ingredients, and are super quick meals.

Creamy Chicken and Rice Skillet Menu:

• Tossed Salad (Spring Mix, Carrot, and Grape Tomatoes)
• Creamy Chicken and Rice Skillet

Ingredients for Creamy Chicken and Rice Skillet:

• 2 yellow onions, diced (Aldi – $1.49 for 3 lbs) — $0.33
• 4 Tablespoons butter (Aldi – $2.79 for 1-lb) — $0.35
• 1-lb. boneless skinless chicken breast (or thighs), diced into small pieces (Aldi) — $2.49
• 2 cups white rice (Aldi – $2.95 for 3-lbs) — $0.98
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, pepper to taste
• 1 32-ounce carton chicken broth plus two cups of water (Aldi) — $1.39
• 1 bag frozen mixed vegetables (Aldi) — $0.98
• 2/3 cup heavy whipping cream (Aldi – $4.95 for 32oz) — $0.83
• 8 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded (Aldi) — $1.49

Total for Baked Chicken: $8.84 (serves 6-8)

Ingredients for Tossed Salad:

• organic spring mix, reduced (Aldi) — $1
• 1 shredded carrot, handful of grape tomatoes (Aldi) — approximately $0.75

Total for Tossed Salad: $1.75 (serves 6)

Total Cost for Dinner: $10.09 (plus cost of seasonings) (makes 6+ servings)

How to Make Creamy Chicken and Rice Skillet:

1. Add the diced onions and butter to an oven-safe deep skillet. Sauté over medium heat until the onions are soft.

2. Add the diced chicken and continue to stir and cook for a few minutes.

3. Add the rice, thyme, salt, pepper, garlic powder, chicken broth, and water, and stir to combine. Turn the heat up to medium high, place a lid on the skillet, and bring to a boil. Once it boils, turn the heat down to low and continue simmering for 15 minutes, covered, stirring occasionally.

4. Add the frozen mixed vegetables and cook for another 5 minutes, covered.

5. Add the heavy whipping cream and stir. Add more salt to taste, if desired.

6. Top with shredded cheese. Turn on the oven broiler and place the skillet under the broiler until cheese starts to brown.

7. Prepare the tossed salad (or another side of your choice) by adding the spring mix, shredded carrot, and grape tomatoes to a bowl. If desired, add a dressing you have on hand or drizzle some oil and vinegar and toss together.
