Here are some recipes for budget cooking. Frugal meals
can be nutritious, delicious and fun. You can stick to your budget or
fancy food up as you wish.
Weeknight dinners that satisfy the
whole family can be less of a challenge than many people realize.
Comforting, filling and quickly prepared meals don't have to mean less
nutritious choices for busy families.
You can keep the cost down
by buying and using seasonal products, making your own mixes, or
cooking in bigger batches (doubling or tripling recipes) so you have
meals in the freezer. But almost anytime you cook-it-yourself, you're
saving money and probably getting better tasting and more nutritious
meals.
Another bonus to doing it the pennywise way when you are
cooking is that it is often also time-saving - for those super busy days
when you want or need to prepare meals quickly.
We hope you enjoy these recipes and will send in some of your favourite pennywise meals to share with others.
