@dollartreedinners: Dollar Tree Thanksgiving Dinner for $20 I shop at one Dollar Tree on one day, the only items I can use from home are oil, salt, and pepper. If that Dollar Tree doesn't have what I want, I find a substitute or go without. Here's what I bought: 4 packs of country ham $5.00 2 cans of french style green beans $2.50 Buttery homestyle instant mashed potatoes $1.25 Milk $1.25 Margarine $1.25 Fried onions $1.25 Cream of mushroom soup $1.25 Mac and Cheese $1.25 Turkey gravy $1.25 Graham cracker pie crust $1.25 Chocolate pudding $1.25 Cream cheese $1.25 Total $20.00 No Bake Cheesecake: Soften cream cheese to room temperature and cream with a hand mixer, slowly whip in 1 cup of cold milk. Once fully combined, add pudding and whip for 3 minutes. Pour into pie crust and refrigerate for 2 hours or until set. Green Bean Casserole: Mix 2 cans of drained french style green beans with 1 can of cream of mushroom soup. Heat over medium high until bubbling. Pour into a baking dish and top with fried onions (You can bake if desired to brown & crisp the onions but I wanted to do this whole dinner without using my oven so I did not) Mashed Pototoes Option 1: Boil 2 cups of water and mix in potatoes or for a richer flavor Option 2: Boil 1 & 1/2 cups of water, 1/2 cup of milk, and 2 tablespoons of margarine then mix in potatoes. Mac & Cheese Add macaroni, 1 & 1/2 cups of water, 1/2 cup of milk, 2 tablespoons of margarine, and cheese powder into a saucepan. Mix this all and it will look clumpy, then heat over medium to medium high stirring occasionally until boiling. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 8 minutes stirring occasionally. Ham: I rinsed the ham in a ice bath 4 times until the water was mostly clear, this was to remove the brine/salt from the outside. Then I pan fried it in 2 tablespoons of oil, and 2 tablespoons of margarine. I also mixed my gravy in 2 cups of cold water, and once the ham was ready I poured the gravy in the skillet with the ham #dollartreedinners #dollartreefood #dollartreegroceries #thanksgiving #thankgivingdinner #budgetholidays #dollartreethanksgiving #nontraditionalthanksgiving #dollartreeholiday #makethebestofeverything

How about $20 from Walmart. It might offer more options at the same price. Usually there’s a Walmart near at dollar tree

Great idea for the stovetop green bean casserole. I never have enough room in my oven for everything.

Winters coming can you do a dollar tree ‘emergency box’ things one may need when stuck at home in the snow?

I would love a no budget dollar tree Thanksgiving dinner so we could see how it compares to a "normal" one

Pouring Vernor’s/ Ginger Ale over the ham is a great way to reduce the saltiness.
