The salsalad is just ava, red onion, tomato and corriander/cillantro?
Might give that a try tonight, was deciding what to have for dinner, but to put it in perspective price wise would be looking at around $3 for the avacado and about $5/lb for chicken breast, around $3 for a pack of tortilla for the quesa so prolly bout $15 all up, though prolly also get 2 meals worth overall unless it's really tasty 
3$ for an avacado? Youve got to be kidding. If you live near an urban area, find a super marcado (yes a mexican super market) Avacados are like 1.39 at jewel (one of chicagos big supermarket chains) and they are 3 for a 1$ at the super marcado. Also its not really 15$, so long as you use the left overs. I strongly advise against shopping for a single meal, but instead have some things in mind as you shop, and keep your kitchen stocked. When I last shopped I bought a buncha stuff as well as 2 bags of frozen raw shrimp. The two bags costs 30$, but they will provide me with a ton of meals, and having shrimp on hand is very nice for variety. Its easy to incorporate some leftover rice into a dish with some sauteed shrimp as I did. But if my kitchen wasnt stocked and I only had bought the X and Y for one meal, the rest left in the packages would go to waste, and my meals end up costing me like five times as much.
