DINING ON A BUDGET

I AM ALL FOR FINDING GREAT CLOTHES FOR LOW PRICES BUT I AM EVEN MORE FOR GETTING A GREAT MEAL FOR CHEAP! AS A MOTHER, STUDENT AND WORKER I CANT ALWAYS AFFORD TO DINE OUT EVERY OTHER DAY BUT THERE ARE WAYS AROUND TREATING YOURSELF TO A GOOD MEAL WITHOUT GOING OVER BUDGET (JUST SAY IM A GIRL WITH CAVIAR TASTE ON A MCDONALDS BUDGET LOL). ONE OF MY FAVORITE PLACES TO DINE IN WHEN IM NOT TRYING TO SPENDING OVER 20 BUCKS FOR A MEAL IS NOODLES & COMPANY! THEY HAVE SOME REALLY GREAT PASTA DISHES, SOUPS AND SALADS FOR LOW PRICES. ONE OF MY FAVORITE DISH IS THE PENNA ROSA PASTA WITH PARMESAN CRUSTED CHICKEN BREAST. ITS MADE WITH A SPICY TOMATO CREAM SAUCE, WINE, FRESH SPINACH AND MUSHROOMS, PENNE NOODLES AND PARMESAN CHEESE ON TOP CAN WE SAY DELISH ! I CANT GET ENOUGH OF THIS DISH FOR A REGULAR SIZE BOWL OF PASTA IT IS $5.59 ADD THE PARMESAN CRUSTED CHICKEN FOR AN EXTRA $2.59 AND THERE YOU HAVE IT A GREAT MEAL FOR LESS THAN $10 WHO SAID YOUR ONLY OPTION WAS MCDONALDS ON A BUDGET?!?
