11 Dollar Sushi Rolls
Sushi is commonly one of the most amazing yet expensive items on a menu. BUT if you make it at home using these instructions, I think you can shave it down to around 1 dollar per serving. Sounds like a win to me.
2The 2 Dollar Stew (Budae Jjigae)
This is perhaps the greatest cheap homemade soup/stew you will ever eat in your life. It's incredibly simple, can be made in a typical college dorm room, and is done in just a few minutes. All thanks to the classic Budae Jjigae!
34 Dollar Date Night Desserts (3 ways)
On Valentines Day, or any date for that matter, you're wining and dining your significant other to a very expensive meal. Although those budget busters can be delicious, how about we make those same boujee desserts... but cheaper?
4The 2 Dollar All American Breakfast
The All-American breakfast consists of basic items like eggs, bacon, potatoes of some sorts, toast, or pancakes if you're willing to spend the extra dough. Let me show you how to not spend an unreasonable amount of money on basic breakfast items and how to make them at home and under 2 dollars!
5The 2 Dollar Curry (Butter Chicken)
Okay, curry can be expensive both at a restaurant and when homemade. In order to make this happen, we have to simplify the recipe, maximize the flavor and make this dish for the very cheapest price physically possible...without losing flavor at all.
6The 2 Dollar Sandwich
A great sandwich is usually overpriced. But you can make this homemade sandwich for a total of 2 dollars PER SERVING. That means your 12 dollar sandwich is going right out the window.
73 Dollar Homemade Ramen
No, this isn't instant ramen so don’t ask. I'm talking about the gourmet ramen that costs $15 or more for a single bowl! That's just unacceptable so I'll show you how to make homemade gourmet miso ramen for just 3 dollars that'll make all categories of ramen from fancy to instant look bad.
8Giant 4 Dollar Homemade Fajitas Meal
Ah yes, the TexMex classic, fajitas. We all know it. We all love it. However, going out with friends and family trying to enjoy a steamy plate of meat, beans, vegetables, and warm tortillas that you just want to cuddle up in are so darn expensive!! Enough is enough of spending over 15 bucks a serving for fajitas. That's why we are making chicken fajitas at home, but wayyyy cheaper. Like $4 per serving cheaper.
9The 2 Dollar Gourmet Burger
Burger's have always been known as commonly cheap food. That is no longer the case with gourmet burgers costing up to $15 or more! We can make a fancy burger with our own homemade buns for just $2.
10The 2 Dollar Burrito
You can go to the freezer section and get a burrito for $1, $2, or $2.50 but does it honestly taste that good? NO! Not to mention when eating out these plump boys are $15 and that's just not right! Do not worry though, we're going to fix that with the perfect 2 dollar burrito.
11The 1 Dollar Lasagna
Can you make the greatest homemade lasagna for 1 dollar per serving… I say yes.. and this is the easiest way you can do it.
12The 1 Dollar Sweet and Sour Chicken
Restaurant sweet and sour chicken is already cheap, but I think we can make a homemade version that's not only better, but even cheaper.
131 Dollar Fancy Mac and Cheese
The average cost of fancy mac and cheese is 7 bucks and above. Obviously, store bought is much cheaper, but making your own oven mac and cheese with multiple kinds of cheese can be done for as little as 1 dollar per serving. And it's better than 99 percent of the other mac and cheeses out there. Take it or leave it bud.
14The 2 Dollar Gourmet Breakfast Sandwich
The best and fanciest homemade breakfast sandwich should be 2 dollars… and so we did that.
152 Dollar Spaghetti and Meatballs
Spaghetti and meatballs should be an unforgettable experience that costs you little money to make. We’re going to do that today.
161 Dollar Dumplings (3 Ways)
These are the greatest and cheapest homemade dumplings you'll likely ever have.
17The 2 Dollar Bento Box
A Bento Box is the perfect food for everyone who wants lots of little tastings. And you may be absolutely tickled to find out that you can make this version (one of the greatest big dub?) for just around 2 dollars a serving.
181 Dollar Kung Pao Chicken
You order delivery Kung Pao chicken for more than 10x the price of this homemade Kung Pao chicken. Don’t worry, I will show you the way.
1930 Cent Gourmet Donuts (3 Ways)
These homemade donuts are the best you will ever make in your life. Cocoa puff peanut butter donuts, toasted marshmallow cornflake donuts, and a classic plain glazed... all of that, and it's 3x times cheaper than most donuts.
20The Cheapest Sandwich Ever (Chopped Cheese)finale
A bodega Chopped Cheese can be made homemade for even cheaper than you might have imagined. Homemade hero rolls are at the heart of this, but not before paying homage and respect to the humble sandwich. Before you get all nervous we brought a guest to teach us the good ol' fashioned New York way.
