If I want a burger I buy some at Costco and cook them on my George Foreman grill ,LOL
When we go on trips we take chicken salad sandwiches using Costo’s canned chicken. We put them in a cooler with bottles of water (or soda) and separate lettuce that we put on the sandwich when we eat them. We also bring a few carrots and celery or snap peas. It costs practically nothing, tastes great and it’s safer.
When we’re home and it’s been a very busy day our local grocery store has take-out bistro meals that are half the price of take-out and you don’t have to pay a tip to a distracted kid who just hands you your food. I see some people buying multiple ready to eat meals. They much cheaper and have less salt than the drive-thru places.
