Query: Easy, truly frugal cooking

These days, too many recipes featured in magazines and cooking shows are "gourmet" - expensive and time-consuming. This book is different. It offers easy, money saving recipes and even some Jar Mix recipes for gift baskets. It is perfect for the cook who has to get good food on the table while staying within a budget. I think students, homemakers, single parents and anyone on a tight budget who wants to eat well would especially like this book. The only part that disappointed me was the meat section, which was just not as comprehensive as I would have liked. For example, there are no ground meat recipes that I could find. Ground beef is low cost and can be used in dozens of recipes. Also, crock pot cooking, a frugal and easy option, is not listed. However, this book is still well worth purchasing and anyone who uses it regularly will save money.
