1 pound dry pasta 1.50
1 28 oz jar spaghetti sauce 2.00
2 15 oz cans green beans 3.00
6.50 per serving four people 1.62
Add 1 pound ground beef 6.00
12.50 per serving four people 3.12
Just like in the days when schools served spaghetti and meat sauce and green beans
McDs hamburger small fries no drink in NOVA 2.40
Spaghetti with olive oil and minced garlic makes a good dish on the cheap .50 cents each serving for four people 2.00 for the whole dish.
