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!

Don’t laugh, but we usually have pigs in a blanket and frozen pizza. Yes, I DO actually cook, most days!
I make a FANTABULOUS cheese ball! We grub it up on several dishes till midnight but this is my favorite.
we usually have finger foods, wings, queso and chex mix!
My favorite snack food and New Year’s Eve is Spinach Artichoke dip. I will surely need this mixer to make it.
Just joined you on FB!

Is it bad that I got two mixers for Christmas but I still want a Kitchenaid??
Anyway, it’s always been tradition to get Chinese food on New Years.. guess I should come up with something better! I’ll get working on it!
This would certainly help with New Years celabration – some spinich dip
We always have chili….and of course Chex party mix…yum yum!
I will make something traditional for my family–Chili Dogs!

My favorite is any kind of finger food! Bruschetta and pepperoni pizza monkey bread are two that stand out!
Mini spanacopita.
We always have shrimp cocktails and sparkling cider on New Years’ Eve. Love your blog!
Some cheese fondue would be nice for a New Year’s Eve supper. One New Year’s Day I make my traditional southern good luck meal of Black Eyed Peas (usually in the form of Hoppin’ John), pork of some kind (usually hog jowles, this year a pork loin recipe I’m dying to try), collards, and cornbread (this year I’m making cracklin’ corn bread for a change, hubby loved this growing up). Wouldn’t it be fun to start the new year off with a brand new Kitchen Aid.
Bacon wrapped water chestnuts
My family enjoys a good prime rib with all the trimmings on New Years Eve!
Steak au Poivre and crabcakes! Home-made of course!
My favorite New Year’s Dish would have to be lasagna!! 🙂 My mom made it every year for New Years day growing up and it’s my fav! 🙂
