Chicken Stir-Fry with Frozen Veggies

This Chicken Stir-Fry with Frozen Veggies costs about $7 and takes 20 minutes, producing a meal that looks like delivery but costs 60% less than takeout. A pound of chicken breast ($3) combined with a bag of frozen stir-fry vegetables ($2), soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and rice yields protein and nutrition. The frozen veggies are flash-frozen at peak nutrition, matching the Baked Potato Bar (rank #6) in convenience but with 50% more fiber per serving. Cook chicken first, set aside, blast vegetables on high heat, add sauce, serve over rice. It bookends the list as the fastest option for busy families.
