Notes
Ground beef will run about 75 Baht/500 grams, if using minced pork, that will cost about 60 Baht/500 grams, chicken even less. Cheese will run 200-300 Baht. Everything else is minimal. For 6 servings this is $1.85 per serving, for 8 servings this is $1.40 per serving. Even less with pork or chicken. Over all, not a bad meal.
