LowFat, Low-Cost Adventure
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
With wonderful recipes like Morroccan Beef with Lemon Couscous to Cajun Dirty Rice the choices are varied, a nice change from most "low cost" cookbooks. There are many tips on low-cost cooking, many of which can be found in other books, but I enjoyed how this book was organized. All the recipes we have tried from this cookbook have been approved by my picky 3 year old. The reason I gave this book 4 stars instead of 5 is that many recipes take an a hour or longer to cook. Cooking from scratch is a big cost reducer for the food budget, but can become time consuming. There are cost per serving estimates in the margins next to every recipe, which come pretty close to the mark for what I spend to make the recipe.
Low-Fat, Low-Cost, and Worth It!

Again, Prevention has published a cookbook worth buying! Most low-cost, low-fat recipes are boring and tasteless but these recipes are full of flavor and fun. You just have to try it!
