I was provided a copy of the GoodCheapEats cookbook to review. No other compensation was provided for this post or for hosting a giveaway. All opinions expressed below are my own.
When I get the opportunity to check out a new budget friendly cookbook, I always jump at the chance. Even though I love browsing Pinterest and other food blogs for recipe inspiration that is also easy on the wallet, there is just something about flipping through the pages of an actual physical cookbook. Am I right on this, folks? ;)
Some of you all may already be familiar with Jessica, the lovely author of the GoodCheapEats cookbook from her two popular blogs- Life As Mom and Good Cheap Eats. If not, then please let me introduce you to her and her newest cookbook! (Did I mention this is cookbook #3 for her??)
Good Cheap Eats (the book) is inspired by Good Cheap Eats (the blog), which Jessica published for five years to help families and busy parents find better ways to get economical and healthy meal options on the table without sacrificing good taste or good nutrition. The book follows this theme, with over 70 two- and three-course meals (200 recipes) that feed a family of 4 for $10 or less. Along the way, she has included over 100 tips for stretching grocery budgets, making ingredients go farther, and getting the most flavor from budget-friendly ingredients.
Although, I cannot share all my favorite recipes from the cookbook with you all, I can share this one. Her recipe for these simple, yet perfectly soft Baby Cakes...
