>>> MY FAVORITE

When i was growing up my great grandma loves to make "Navy" beans with ham and fried potatoes. She said when she was growing up during the depression that's what they pretty much lived off of. You can get bags of Navy beans/white beans for $10 at the Dollar store or buy bags buy the bulk. They go a long way and you do not have to add ham to it. Bacon also works well.
We always had cornbread with it and you can usually find the jiffy cornbread on sale sometimes for .49 cents per box.
Grab a huge bag of potatoes for $3.00 and you have your week set!
