Easy, budget-friendly dinners for January

Budget Friendly Dinners

January is my favorite time to keep things simple and budget-friendly in the kitchen. After the holidays, I like recipes that use affordable ingredients, stretch well for leftovers, and still feel satisfying to cook and eat.

These dinners check all those boxes — easy, cozy, and kind to your grocery bill.

This week’s budget-friendly dinner ideas:

Oven-Baked Chicken Leg Quarters

Affordable, flavorful, and practically foolproof. This is one of my favorite ways to get a lot of mileage out of one protein.

Recipe

Easy One Pan Taco Skillet

Fast, flexible, and perfect for using what you already have in the fridge. Great for leftovers too.

Recipe

Panko Parmesan Baked Cod

An easy way to make fish feel approachable and weeknight-friendly without a lot of extras.

Recipe

Tuscan Broccoli

Simple ingredients, big flavor. This side goes with just about anything. (And it's one of my toddler's favorites!)

Recipe

Honey Sriracha Brussels Sprouts

A little sweet, a little spicy, and always a hit — even with veggie skeptics.

Recipe

If you’re trying to keep January dinners low-stress and practical, this list is a great place to start.

Happy Cooking!
