Okay, here’s one I like-
Fast, Cheap, Good
by Beverly Mills and Alicia Ross.
Love the tips! I have to go lower than they do, but like it that they tried the $100 a week challenge and admit their successes and failures. I think all of us have “expensive” meals and “frugal” meals, and they have lots of ideas on how to save money not just on the really cheap eats, but the things we love to cook. Very friendly cookbook, lovely women.

I just flipped through Make it Fast, Cook it Slow last week. I thought it looked great and might be on my wish lsit for Christmas.

Love the O’Dea book … so many yummy recipes and inspiring ideas! I also like “Don’t Panic, Dinner’s in the Freezer,” for freezer cooking. I also freeze recipe components … cooked meats, shredded cheese, etc., so that I can pull together a meal without having to do a lot of prep work.
