Brazilian Chicken Curry
I have a few experiments on this list - I'm not sure how the BBQ Lentils, Falafal, or Quinoa Salad are going to go over.  I've never made Chicken Riggies before either, but based on the ingredient list, I'm not expecting any dissenters! 

Over at Eat at Home Cooks, they are charging $7 for meals plans now!  It's 6 meals and one dessert (recipes included) with the shopping list provided.  So maybe that is worth it.  Meal planning is enough work that I'd like to get paid for it!  But it does really pay for itself.  When you compare the cost of eating at home to the cost of eating out, you can eat just about anything you'd like at home and save money.
