Each recipe was written from one store’s sale prices in the week shown on its page. Prices change every week.
How these dinners are priced
Every ingredient that was on sale is priced at the share of the package the recipe actually uses. Anything that wasn’t on sale gets an estimated shelf price, and pantry staples like oil, salt and spices count as free. The total is divided by the number of servings the recipe really makes.
