Wow, another holiday season is over. But, I have one more holiday gift to giveaway! See how you can enter to win a KitchenAid Pro HD 5 qt Stand Mixer at the end of this post! EDITED: GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED
I hope you were surrounded by the ones you love most! Our holiday seemed to just go on and on and on, and I was sad to see it end, as out of town family loaded up their car and headed back to Kentucky yesterday.
It always seems like SO much prep, and then BAM! it’s all over way too fast!
Right before Christmas the good people at Sam’s Club challenged several bloggers to create a holiday meal with an assigned budget. My budget was $60, and I decided to use it for a pre New Years Eve dinner with just the four of us.
I had been cooking, and baking all week, so I decided to let Sam’s Club do the cooking for me! I wanted an easy, yet delicious meal we could all enjoy.
Sam’s Club made it simple. By shopping their Artisan Fresh section, I was able to put a great tasting meal on the table with little stress for me! – and we even have left overs!
Budget Friendly Holiday Meal
I couldn’t have come much closer to my budget! My total was $59.21.
Here’s what I picked up:

Chicken and Bacon Bruschetta ($9.98)
Chicken Fettuccini Alfredo ($10.88)
Spring Mix for salad ($4.47)
Herb & Garlic Focaccia ($2.78)
Artisan Fresh Cheesecake Sampler ($14.98)
Wine ($12.98)
$56.07 + $3.14 (tax) = $59.21
This was a nice treat and holiday meal that wouldn’t break your back or budget, leaving more time for family and guests! You could stretch your dollar even further if you wanted to cook your own meal. Sam’s Club has taken all the work out of that for you too, with their Simply Delicious Meals site, full of recipes, meal plans, wine pairing and even shopping lists!

We have a tradition with our three young kids to eat in the dining room by candle light. We also use the fine china (with the kiddos) to make it extra special. I wouldn’t have thought this traditiion would mean that much to our kids – but it does – they love it!! We have steak, potatoes & salad typically – with a dessert made by my 10-year old daughter 🙂
We always order Chinese take-out on New Year’s Eve!
My favorite dish for New Yrs Eve is collard greens!
My family love’s to eat appetizers for supper on New Years! Chicken wings are the biggest family fave 🙂
I love making my mac and cheese for new years

We always do a beautiful meal and stone crabs are the first thing we order. Very easy, not fussy, but tremendously decadent and festive!

Appetizers are what we usually choose to eat. Maybe nachos this year.
Shrimp with handmixed cocktail sauce is an easy appetizer. But any dish that is easy to make and take is always a fav for me!
We don’t have a traditional New Year’s Eve meal, but down south we eat black-eyed peas, collards and hog jowls on New Year’s Day!
Black eyed Peas & Pork! 🙂

Appetizers and lots of munchies while watching my Utes play in the Sun Bowl.
we ALWAYS have shrimp on New Year’s Eve–shrimp cocktail for sure, but also shrimp cooked in other ways. I love to experiment with new recipes, so that part is never the same. Happy New Year!

There is always chicken on our table along with salads and other side dishes. I would love to win the Kitchen Aid!
My husband has started the tradition of cooking seafood for the New Year. Last year it was a seafood paella and this year he’s thinking surf and turf.
After 7 long years of disabling illness, I was finally able to cook thos year for my family and loved every minute of it. I am looking forward to New Year’s Eve! Sam’s is my one stop shop for huge dinner parties, I would be lost without their huge selection on a low budget!
