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!

Our favorite NYE dish is a cream cheese ball covered in chocolate chips with “scooby snacks” to dip in it. (The first year we couldn’t find graham cracker sticks, only Scooby Doo snacks, which has now become a must for us!)

Buffalo chicken dip for New Years!
My favorite New Years recipe would have to be Bruschetta Cheeses dip, stick it in the oven and its ready to go, so creamy and delish!
Beef on Weck, Chicken wing dip with tortilla chips. My children like mini franks wrapped in crescent rolls.
my favorite new year meal has to be our homemade lasagna with a nice, crispy wine and some cheese bread. yumm!!
Our favorite New Year’s Eve dish is mussels in a white wine sauce. LOVE them!
Chips and queso!
My favorite new year’s eve dish is homemade ham and cheese pretzel bites. Or anything little that can be eaten while socializing 🙂 pretzel bites are salty, savory and just decadent enough without being overwhelmingly heavy. 🙂

I love Salvadorean traditional food for this day!! Gives me a chance to teach our kids about my heritage and the food is delish!!!

My favorite NYE meal is any that I don’t have to cook:) This year it was Fuddruckers!!!!!
New years eve dinner is usually homemade lasagne !
I liked tidy mom on f.b.

My favorite NYE…definitely shrimp and cocktail sauce.
We don’t really make anything special for New Year’s, but I’m half Filipino, so Lumpia (egg rolls) are a must for holiday meals. That’s one of my kids’ favorite things to eat.
After spending a week eating sugary treats, our family ends the year with a bang and huddles around a big table full of tasty Chinese food. It’s our last chance to really indulge before we go back to the “healthy way of living”!! Aside from turkey dinner, it’s one of our favourite meals of the year!
My favorite dish is fondue. We’ve been doing fondue for New Years for about 5 years now. We have cheese, bbq and chocolate fondue with a ton of things to dip. The spread covers my sister’s whole island in her kitchen, it is pretty amazing. I love that we all gather around while we eat and joke around. I love this tradition!
I would love a kitchen aid. I’ve wanted one for years!
we love chili con carne and cornbread on nye!
Favorite is chips and salsa…easy and always tasty! 🙂
Favorite dish is Slow Cooker Spinach Artichoke dip!! So awesome, with extra cheese flavors.. and fresh spinach..
My favorite New Year’s meal is beef stroganoff. It is such a comfort, yet celebratory dish! I would love to win this for my daughter’s 30th birthday!
