This was a big hit! Our Smith's stores had a great stocker upper sale, buy 8, get $4.00 off: the pastas were .49 per 1 lb. package, after the discount. I meant to get all spaghetti, but some Angel Hair found its way into the mix. A quick, cheap lunch, I boiled water, cooked 2 lbs. of the pasta. Added 3 small cans of tomato sauce, garlic salt to taste, and stirred. In retrospect, a little more tomato sauce and some parmesan would have been nice, but the cupboards were a little bare. The kids loved it! Not the healthiest meal, but definitely frugal, filling, and satisfying! Great for an improv moment when the hungries hit, it came in at $1.82 for the whole pot, just .91/meal, as it spanned two lunches. Further, it served 9 of us, working out to a grand total of approximately .10/serving. Thin the noodles to one package, add some chopped onion, chicken bouillion, and water, and that will drop to about .06/serving for a sopa fideo! ¡Delicioso!
