Extreme budget cooking is still possible in 2022 - and one dollar can still buy you dinner! Aldi is still a clear winner when it comes to beating inflation and saving money on food costs. Inspired by a video from Homestead Tessie, I created this frugal meal challenge to spend no more than $20 at Aldi and then create a menu plan to feed my family of four dinner for an entire week. The twist is: no ingredient could cost more than $1.00. Head to Aldi with me and my 18 year old son, Daniel, as we shop and plan meals for under $20.
