The $10 Food Day #2: More Cheap Recipes To Feed a Family of Four
I’m super excited to share my second $10 Food Day post with you! If you’re new to my blog or to this series, here’s what you can expect:
- Four recipes (breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a snack)
- Enough to feed 4 people
- Total cost is less than $10 – for the entire day!
This particular menu costs just $8.71 – for all four recipes. Last time I came in at $7.53. Keeping that in mind, there is some wiggle room for you to supplement your menu with fresh fruit, vegetables, or beverages.

Breakfast: Banana-Oat Pancakes
With chocolate chips (gluten free) = $1.51 for four servings. Get the recipe here.
Lunch: Egg Salad Sandwiches
Classic, with a little bit of a twist. $1.80 for four servings. Get the recipe here.
Dinner: Tortilla Shell Pizzas
You’re going to love these! Just $3.50 for 8 pizzas. Get the recipe here.
Snack: Banana-Nutella “Ice Cream”
With only two ingredients! = $1.90 for four servings. Get the recipe here.
Use these menu items as a starting point, supplement with fruits, vegetables, and other healthy foods, and feel free to mix and match to find what works best for you and your family.

What yummy foods! Love the egg salad idea and then pizzas. Oh, and those pancakes … delicious!
Love this series so much! We’ll be making those pizzas and the pancakes for sure!
Thanks Liz!

Great ideas. I love the popcorn snack in one of your other $10 day posts and the banana nutella ice cream looks amazing. I make a lot of soups too. They are so good and filling and so inexpensive when you consider how many servings you get. Also, love my slow cooker and make lots of soup in it.
Thanks Faith! You’re totally right about the soup. Just a few varieties of veggies can yield a huge pot of soup.
