Cheap and easy Gluten Free recipe for college kids

As a broke college student I’m required to get creative when it comes to cheap delicious meals. My dietary restrictions make this challenging. I took one of my favorite meals and tweaked it to fit my dietary needs. I got 3/4 of these ingredients at Aldi!!!

- I used 1 whole bag of GF pasta but, you can sub for any type of regular pasta. (The whole or half a box depending on how many you’re serving).

- I used about 1/3 of the grass fed beef. (If making this for more than 1 person I would have used all of it).

- I used a little less than half of the jar of sauce. Again, you can sub out any type of sauce I just prefer this one. I got this sauce from Publix ‼️

- lastly use any cheese you want I just love the taste of this one!! I used a few handfuls.

... Read moreAs a budget-conscious college student, embracing gluten-free options can be a rewarding culinary adventure. This simple recipe offers nutritional variety without breaking the bank. Consider swapping the pasta, which is foundational in many meals, for unique alternatives like zucchini noodles or quinoa to vary your palate and increase your veggie intake. Local stores like Aldi and Walmart often have seasonal sales on produce that can complement your meals nicely. You could also explore local farmers' markets for fresh ingredients, which is not only an economical option but also supports local businesses. Along with these tips, don't forget that meal prepping can save you time and money, ensuring you have healthy options ready to go amidst your busy schedule. Mixing leftover ingredients into your next dish can also chew up that extra gluten-free pasta you have on hand. Remember, healthy eating doesn't have to be complicated or costly! It's about making smart choices that meet your dietary needs while satisfying your taste buds. You can customize this recipe by adding fresh herbs or spices to elevate the flavor without adding extra cost.
