And as I was reading it and you mentioned a low cost meal to feed many I thought of ziti. :) It works wonders for the grocery bill and is comfort food at it's best. I know the dinner will be so important to every visitor. <BR/><BR/>Living in New York City I see so many homeless and never know what to do. You've inspired me to look into that!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17506674078559549815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1234696079589972189.post-90326577860400824052008-03-11T10:23:00.000-07:002008-03-11T10:23:00.000-07:00Why aren't people like you and your churdch on the...Why aren't people like you and your churdch on the news at all.

What if you made one with baked chicken hindquarters, Rice pilaf, salad and crazy cake with homemade icing. <BR/>If you can get 10 lbs of chicken for $6.90 or cheaper. I think if you figure 1/3 lb-1/2 lb uncooked chicken per person so then each bag would serve 20-30 people. 5 bags would be about $30, rice pilaf costs almost nothing to make alot! Use garlic, onion, chicken broth and spices to make it. Salad- lettuce, you can make a big enough salad for under $10 usually. Cake is cheap as it has no eggs in it and taste good! <BR/>Just another idea!Martha A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02426112535240400393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1234696079589972189.post-43806798912040771382008-03-10T12:24:00.000-07:002008-03-10T12:24:00.000-07:00Good for you!!!

I did get lucky on some of the items, like a huge meat sale that had pork loin at 99 cents a pound. It was so much work, but the kids and their parents had a blast, and it was worth it!TJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11002884307603736439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1234696079589972189.post-36173809236205273392008-03-10T06:59:00.000-07:002008-03-10T06:59:00.000-07:00Awesome job!
