Southern New Year's Meal


If you’re originally from the South, this menu probably isn’t going to look foreign to you. Southerners have been choosing these dishes for years as their choice dinner on New Year’s Day. There’s lots of different beliefs as to what each food represents, but, to me, it’s just good, country cooking. Plus, these foods are very humble and simple foods to start with, so when you can grab them on sale this time of year, you’ll be making for one deliciously frugal meal.

The prices listed below are an average price based on what’s on sale this week so you’ll have something to compare to your shopping list for your local grocery store.

Collard Greens – recipe

collard greens – 99¢ lb.
hot sauce – $1.66
butter – $1.99

Black-Eyed Peas – recipe

dried black-eyed peas – $1
onions – $1 lb.
sugar – $1.88

(Note: in general even with a great sale dried beans are always cheaper than canned.  One 1b of dried beans equals 3 15 oz cans once they are re-hydrated)

Pan-Fried Pork Chops – recipe

pork chops – $2.99 lb.
flour – $1.99
canola oil – $3

Broccoli Cornbread – recipe

Jiffy corn muffin mix – 50¢
broccoli – $1.88
milk – $2.88
cottage cheese – $2.50

Pineapple Upside-Down Cake – recipe

canned pineapple – $1
brown sugar – $1.19
flour – $1.99
baking powder – 99¢
vanilla extract – $2.99
