Directions
I always have eggs, pasta and some type of greens on hand; for this fettuccini dish used Swiss chard but spinach, escarole or kale would also work. More cheap dinner ideas that will stretch the dollar you can try Pasta and Broccoli or Eggs Pizzaiola.,Pasta, greens and poached egg are one of my favorite go-to, no-fuss weeknight dinners in the colder months when Im hungry and need dinner on the table quick. The poached egg creates a luscious sauce when mixed together, which is even better topped with fresh grated parmesan cheese!,
