Cracker Barrel
Restaurant food for $10 a person doesn't seem likely these days. Even fast-food restaurants can charge $15 or more per meal. It doesn't seem possible to feed a family of five for as little as $40, but Cracker Barrel, a restaurant known for its home-style cooking, is proving it is.
Cracker Barrel offers family meals similar to the Texas Roadhouse family meals, which are perfect for busy weeknights. However, Cracker Barrel offers nine different options, including an all-day breakfast bundle.
Each meal includes a main dish and sides to serve a family of five, ranging in cost from $37-$55 (depending on location). That's an average of less than $10 a person (before tax and gratuity). That's not a lot of money for the convenience of having someone else cook for you and the joy of not dirtying your kitchen prepping and cooking a meal. Plus, the time you're not spending in the kitchen can be spent with friends and family at the table.

Cracker Barrel’s Easter Family Dinners
Cracker Barrel also has two heat-and-serve Easter dinner meals that start at $99.99 and feed 4-6 people (and one feast that serves 8-10). They seem like good deals, too, particularly because you don't have to cook a single thing. Instead, you can spend the holiday focused on people, not pots and pans. Choose from two Easter ham dinners and one prime rib dinner. All dinners include sides and yeast rolls and come cold and ready to throw in the oven to reheat and serve.
Be sure to preorder Easter meals ahead of time for pickup or delivery (with a delivery charge) between March 28 and 31.
With all that time you won't be spending in the kitchen, maybe you can spend it hosting an epic Easter egg hunt party instead.
