Hellman's

I’m back again to share even more great info about Hellmann’s mayo! Last time I posted a time saving chicken recipe, and today I want to save a budget friendly recipe for you!

If you have a family (or a large group of people to feed on a regular basis), I’m sure you know how expensive it can be to provide a nice meal night after night. Although I love trying new recipes, I have found that it can be expensive, as so many of the recipes call for expensive ingredients (mainly spices), that I will probably only use once. Not only does this take up extra room in my kitchen cabinets, but it is costly. What is the solution? I try to make meals that use simple ingredients – ingredients that I always have on hand. Not only is this a huge time saving factor, but it saves so much money. Hellmann’s has so many tasty recipes that are budget-friendly, and that is exciting to me, because I can try new recipes without spending a fortune doing it!

I found the following budget friendly recipe (Oven-Fried Herb Chicken) on the Hellmann’s website:

Oven-Fried Herb Chicken

Prep Time: 10 minutes
8 servings
Cook Time: 40 minutes

1/2 cup plain dry bread crumbs
3/4 tsp. garlic salt
1/2 tsp. dried oregano, parsley or rosemary leaves, crushed
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
3-1/2 lbs. chicken parts, skin removed
1/2 cup Hellmann’s® or Best Foods® Mayonnaise Dressing with Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Combine bread crumbs, garlic salt, herbs and black pepper in shallow dish; set
aside.

Add chicken and Hellmann’s® or Best Foods® Extra Virgin Olive Oil Mayonnaise
to large plastic bag; shake to evenly coat. Remove chicken, then lightly dip in crumb
mixture. Arrange chicken on cookie sheet.

Bake 40 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked.

Cost per serving*: $.88.
*Based on average retail prices at national supermarkets.

  1. I like to make baked ziti, because it’s good for two dinners.
    Thanks!

  3. I try to use things that are in season. I find that by doing this I get better prices and fresher produce

  4. I cook a lot of rice products when watching the budget

  5. We eat a lot of pasta and chicken when I am watching my budget (which is most of the time). It is also easy to make a lot with these two items and then my husband and I can take the leftovers to work the next day for lunch.

  6. I like to cook pasta with a side of salad. It does not cost that much and the kids love it. thanks

  7. I make soup with beans and rice because those items are generally pretty low cost.

  9. Spaghetti is always a cheap dinner, and tacos is one of my go-to easy, cheap meals!

  10. When watching my budget I like to cook meals that can last for a few days such as pastas or meals with rice.

  11. I will cook a whole chicken. It costs a bit up front, but the first day, we eat off the chicken. I shred the rest to make chicken tacos, chicken quesadillas and chicken enchiladas at least three more days. Finally, I use the bones and innards to make my own chicken stock that I often us in some chicken and dumplings. Best way to stretch your dollar

  12. REQUIRED ENTRY: we do alot of soup and stews or pasta with meat or cheese sauce

  13. I love cooking up a huge batch of chicken (just baking it, nothing special) and serving it with rice and veggies. Then, we shred what’s left and have chicken pizzas the next night. If I have any left it gets tossed into my “everything soup”.

  14. When I am watching my budget I fix chili at home. Like on Facebook – Susan Jones Ladd and Twitter – corrysue1. I want to thank you for this awesome sweep and hope to win 🙂

  15. Truthfully it’s not about cooking but preparing cereal and milk. 🙂

    But… hard boiled eggs + egg salad or pasta would be my other answer!

  17. Whatever is on sale that week. If chicken is on sale I will stock up on that. Same with steak or pork.

  18. we usually make spaghetti,grilled cheese,hamburgers or hotdogs when things are tight

  19. I like to cook things like pasta when we are on a tight budget.

  20. Most pasta recipes are inexpensive to make and we all love spaghetti and ravioli. Your recipe for Oven-Fried Herb Chicken sounds and looks very good and lately chicken has been reasonably priced around here. Thanks for having the contest!
