Nutritious, Easy & Inexpensive Meals For All

I'm of the opinion that everyone should have access to nutritious and delicious meals, no matter what kind of budget you're on or how much time you have. My recipes are pretty quick to pull off, don't require a ton of kitchen skills, and stay within (or under!) the USDA’s low-cost food plan budget of about $9 per adult per day. Let's get cookin'!

Here's a combination of my newest content, and older posts that I have recently revised. When my readers ask questions, I do my best to answer them! As a result, some of my posts will be updated periodically to reflect any new information I've gathered for you.
