Book Review: The ideal addition to any personal or family cookbook collection for those affected by the current economic recession
Summary: 5 Stars
If ever there were a 'kitchen cook' friendly compilation of low-cost, nutritious, delicious recipes guaranteed to be as palate pleasing and as appetite satisfying as their ingredients and preparation are easy on the pocket book, Heidi Smalheiser's "The Tight Budget Cookbook" is the one! Featuring a culinary wealth of terrific breakfast dishes for as little as 4 cents a serving, combined with main dishes that include meat for as little as 51 cents a serving, "The Tight Budget Cookbook" truly lives up to its name. Along with the usual list of ingredients as cooking instructions, each featured recipe is enhanced with serving size, individual serving cost, number of servings, as well as a breakdown of calories, fat, protein, carbohydrates, cholesterol, and sodium per serving. The cornucopia of recipes themselves range from Quick Skillet Lasagna; Butternut Squash with Black Beans; Roasted Herb Potatoes; and 5-a-Day Salad; to Baked Lemon Chicken; Veggie Bean Wrap with Avocado and Mangos; Microwave-Baked Apple; and Pineapple Rice Bake. "The Tight Budget Cookbook" is the ideal addition to any personal or family cookbook collection for those affected by the current economic recession -- and beyond!
