St. Patrick's Eve Feast for Under $20!

Happy St. Patrick's Eve, Tiny Wallet Stylers! We're throwing a little mid-week dinner party to celebrate with some neighbors! Here's what we have up our sleeve:


Shepherd's Pie (prepared last night and refrigerated- all we have to do is bake for 30 minutes!)




Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage (put the corned beef in this am, will add the cabbage when we get home)


Chocolate Stout Cake with Bailey's Cream Cheese Frosting (made last night, super quick!)




Oh my goodness (my Guiness!). How excited am I to get home and eat? Oh, and the best part? It's totally thrifty! In fact, we'll be feeding 4 people for under $20!!!


Breakdown: 
Corned beef: $5.56/4 lbs
Cabbage: $.70/1 head
Ground beef: $4.89/1.29 lbs
Carrots: $.60 (2 carrots from a 2 lb bag, approximate)
Onions: $.50 (2 small onions from a 2 lb bag, approximate)
Potatoes: $1.00 (half of a 5 lb bag, on sale $2.00)
Chicken stock: $1.50 (half of a $3.00 container)
Chocolate cake ingredients: $4 total ($1 for 1 can of stout, $3 for cocoa powder, flour, eggs, butter, etc.)


$18.75! Not too shabby, eh? 


Mmmm. How are you celebrating St. Patties Day
