12 Delicious Costco Dinners Your Family Can Enjoy for Less Than $20

Costco is an excellent place to pick up food staples and side dishes, but it can also be a good option for full family meals at home.

The retailer has plenty of pre-made meals or other easy options when you don't have the time or money to make elaborate meals.

Check out these options the next time you go to Costco. They can feed your family for less than $20, allowing you to get ahead financially.

Editor's note: Prices and availability are subject to change and may vary by location.

Grab Kirkland Signature Garlic Butter Shrimp, which you can make on its own or add to pasta and other dishes.

The garlic butter shrimp comes in a pack of two 1-pound containers for $18.65, or $9.32 per package. You can also add pasta or vegetables and make a complete meal.

One of the best-known items at Costco is the rotisserie chicken in the deli section.

For $4.99, you can serve the chicken on its own for dinner. Alternatively, you can pull it apart to use as a main ingredient for shredded barbecue chicken or chicken salad.

Check out the refrigerated section for a side dish like Main St. Bistro All Natural Mashed Potatoes, just $9.94 for two 32-ounce packages.

Chili is a delicious option for any night of the week. Check out the Kirkland Signature Beef Chili, which comes in at $4.96 per pound or about $20.21 per container.

That amount of chili should easily feed a family of four, giving you extra room for crackers or add-ins like extra onions.

Get a delicious meal that's also easy to make with Marie Callender's Chicken Pot Pies.

The pot pies come in a pack of eight and are filled with chicken, vegetables, and gravy inside a flaky crust. You'll have plenty for your family at just $14.99.

You can try to gather all the ingredients you need for taco night, or you can simply buy a taco kit from Costco.

Kirkland Signature Chicken Street Tacos cost $18.07 and include everything you need, including chicken, salsa, tortillas, and more. Your family can assemble 12 tacos using the included ingredients.

Kirkland Signature Beef Lasagna might take a little time to cook, but it is big enough to feed your family.

It comes in a 3-pound pack of two for $20.19 (around $10.09 each), making it affordable to feed everyone for two nights.

Meatballs are a quick and easy option for any number of meals, such as spaghetti and meatballs or meatball subs.

Costco's Kirkland Signature Italian Style Beef Meatballs cost $22.59, but the 6-pound bag has enough meatballs for plenty of dinner options, bringing your cost per meal under $20.

If you're shopping at Costco and your family needs a meal, start in one of the frozen aisles and look for the Kirkland Signature Cheese Pizza. 

You can get four pizzas for $13.39, making it an easy and affordable option for the entire family.

There's no rule that says you can't have breakfast for dinner. So, toss a quiche in your oven and bake it for a hearty meal for your family.

La Terra Fina Quiche comes in a 48-ounce two-pack with both a cheddar and broccoli and spinach and artichoke quiche. Grab the two-pack for $14.79.
