Dinner on the Cheap!


I have to admit, I am not much of a cook and tonight's errands kept me out too late to go all out on dinner. Well, one go to meal that my oldest BEGS for (seriously, she would have this nightly if I allowed it) is pinwheels. I love them too, but not just for the taste. I love that I can get all the ingredients for so cheap and I love that they cover all 4 food groups.

Basically, you need crescent rolls, cream cheese, sliced deli meat and spinach.
I got the first 3 ingredients FREE and paid .05 for the spinach(see my Target run)

You take the crescent rolls and pinch together the seams, slather some cream cheese on, and top with spinach and meat. Roll up and pinch closed(you should have a little burrito). Cut into about 5-8 pinwheels(depending how thick you want them).
Cook according to instructions on crescent roll package.

I have to admit mine are messy, but my 6 year old doesn't seem to mind, lol.

Those look delicious! My kids would certainly gobble those up. I also have a recipe I've been meaning to post that uses the FREE cream cheese we got during the Kroger sale a while back. I still have so much of that stuff in my fridge -- and no deals on BAGELS!! LOL That's my luck. :D
