Hey all!

I am doing an express show in a week (making the recipe before everyone gets there). Any ideas for a quick recipe that's low on cost? I plan on doing as much prep as possible at home (I'm buying ingredients, then she's reimbersing me), then throwing it all together when I get there. Thanks for your help!
