Make cheap food stretch farther

So I would like to take just a quick moment and ramble on about exactly what the title says. Let's make cheap food, go farther. So here is what I did for dinner tonight. Hormel Chili you can normally catch on sale for about $1 for a can. Not bad at all. They are free of preservatives, and have a turkey one that is 99% fat free. Great for our lifestyle! So I just heated that up in the microwave, added some shredded cheese, and cooked up some rice. Mixed it all together and bam, plenty of food! I maybe paid $.75 per serving, maybe tops? I'm going to say less than that, but if you want to add some extra veggies there is for sure some wiggle room in the budget. Maybe toss in some celery, or bell peppers and you have a great balanced meal.

What are some of your favorite meal stretchers?  

Thanks for reading.
