<human>:  How can I make a holiday dinner on a budget?
<bot>: One way to make a holiday dinner on a budget is to use items you already have in your kitchen. You can make a delicious dinner without spending a lot of money by getting creative with staples like rice, pasta, grains, and/or beans. Consider using cheaper cuts of meat or opting for vegetarian alternatives. Look for sales and discounts at your local grocery store or farmers' market, where you can purchase in-season fruits and vegetables at a lower price than other times of year. You can also use frozen and canned foods like soups, sauces, and vegetables to stretch your budget.
