One of my favorite frugal meals is sort of like shepherd's pie or tater tot casserole. I call it Comfort Casserole
1 lb gr beef
1 sm onion, chopped
1 can cr of chicken soup
1 can cr of celery soup
frozen green beans
30 oz frozen shredded hash browns
Brown beef with onion and whatever spices you want (I use garlic powder, salt & pepper). Stir in soups. Spoon into 9x13 glass pan. Layer with frozen green beans, then hash browns. Bake for 40 minutes at 350°F then turn to broil for 5 minutes to brown the potatoes.
It is a big hit with my family and very easy to make.
Also, check out www<dot>savingdinner<dot>com. They have some great freezer cooking menus and instructions that you pay for once and can use again and again. We love it since you can make a whole months worth of meals and put them in the freezer.
