$0.87 per person / Airy cheese soufflé sounds fancy, but it’s actually quite easy and a fun change of pace; plus kids love it! With a serving of spinach included, you have an elegant yet very inexpensive one-dish meal, high in protein and iron. If you want to make a sauce for the soufflé, purée the two leftover egg yolks with a little lemon juice, olive oil, and almost any cooked or roasted vegetables, such as carrots, cauliflower, or sweet potato.
