Pro tip: a bag of dried lentils and a can of diced tomatoes got me 4 dinners for under five bucks total

I swapped ground beef for lentils in my chili recipe and honestly couldn't taste the difference after the first 3 weeks of making it, has anyone else found a good cheap protein swap that actually works?

Swapped chickpeas for chicken in my curry last week and my kid asked why dinner was so crunchy, so your mileage may definitely vary on this one.

Yeah totally lol @the_thomas, I did the same thing with black beans in tacos and my kids were so confused
