    Can’t beat this…2 steaks for $2.08! “Manager’s Special” is the way to go! May not be the “best” cut of steak, but it was still delicious!

    Ingredients
    2 cuts steak ($2.08)
    1/4 cup marinade ($.50)
    4 potatoes ($1.oo)
    3 cloves garlic ($.10)
    1/2 cup milk ($.10)
    2 T butter ($.20)
    1 small eggplant ($.79)
    2 T EVOO ($.10)
    1/2 cup corn ($.20)

    Directions
    1. Marinate steak at least 30 minutes in fridge. Grill as you wish!
    2. Boil potatoes, quartered. When soft, mash with butter, garlic, and milk. Add S/P to taste.
    3. Slice eggplant. Place on paper towel and sprinkle with salt to draw out moisture. After a few minutes, flip and salt other side. Saute on both sides in extra virgen olive oil until tender. Season if you wish!
    4. Enjoy a hearty “steak and potatoes” meal for less than $5!!!


    Cost $5.07
