Review by Library Journal Review

Practical tips for affordable living abound in writer Fisher's new collection of budget-friendly recipes, all grouped into two- or three-course menus meant to feed a family of four for $10 or less. Fisher (Not Your Mother's Make-Ahead and Freeze Cookbook), who ate beans and rice while paying off $18,000 of consumer debt, supplies readers with 101 money-saving tips, such as eating meatless a few times a week, keeping an eye out for clearance food items, and making stocks and condiments from scratch. Her practical recipes (e.g., smoky corn salsa, summer vegetable kabobs, oaty maple breakfast cake) emphasize fresh ingredients and include easy-to-browse category labels: meatless, gluten-free, make ahead, freezer-friendly. VERDICT Like Beth Moncel's Budget Bytes, this cookbook teaches readers to stretch their dollars without feeling deprived. (c) Copyright 2014.
