💰Cheaper: black olives

Capers provide a similar briny flavor.

raisins

🥗Healthier: dried cranberries

💰Cheaper: sugar

💰Cheaper: none

Tofu can add protein but changes the dish significantly.

Use top sirloin round ground beef.

Season the beef with black pepper and pink salt.

Add minced garlic to the beef.

Dice 2 potatoes and add them to the mixture.

Pour in 1 cup of water until it barely covers the meat.

Add tomato bouillon to the mixture.

Let it simmer until the potatoes are soft, adjusting the softness to your preference.

Optionally, add fresh carrots and peas or use canned vegetables.

Let it simmer for a few more minutes until everything is done.
