Author: Jennifer Maughan

ONE FAMISHED HUSBAND, THREE HUNGRY CHILDREN, rising food costs, and a fixed income could lead to disaster, but Jennifer Maughan successfully navigates the world of grocery shopping by pinching those pennies for all they're worth. She shows how anyone can creatively survive the onslaught of higher grocery bills and still eat tasty, healthy meals.

SHE TELLS FRAZZLED FOOD BUYERS TO:

Allocate funds to the most important foods.

Stop spending money on impulse buys.

Make a shopping plan before heading to the store.

Find the best places to shop in your area.

Be smart about coupons and sales.

In addition, the average cost per serving is highlighted in each recipe, making it easier to calculate the cost of each meal.

The Wall Street Journal reported that wholesale prices of key food items have risen dramatically from 2006.

Retail food prices at the supermarket increased in the first quarter of 2008, according to an American Farm Bureau survey. The total cost of sixteen basic grocery items in the first quarter of 2008 was up about 8 percent, or $3.42, from 2007.

Unique Vegetarian Recipes

Author: Irene W Rundell

You will delight in the taste, appreciate the good nutrition, and enjoy the ease in preparing the recipes in this book. As people become nutrition conscious, they seek healthier ways to prepare food. This cookbook, primarily for vegetarians, includes a chart on how a person can change to a healthier or a vegetarian diet. Many recipes non-vegetarians and vegans will enjoy without change. Others they can adapt by adding meat or egg substitutes. The main course recipes, for most people, will resemble and taste just like the similar meat dish. I would have loved to find a cookbook like this one. Since I didn't find one, and store products contain so many preservatives, food coloring and additives, I had to develop and home-test these dishes myself. You will truly savor the main courses, breakfast dishes, soups, side dishes, salads, muffins, desserts, and bread recipes found in Unique Vegetarian Recipes.
