Just a suggestion: I never seem to use a whole can of tomato paste so I measure out individual 1 tablespoon portions of the paste. I place each one on a piece of plastic and place it in the freezer until frozen. I then put them in a zip lock and I have ready to use portions for a few more meals!

Also because I’m not feeding an entire family, I can stretch these meals a little further. The only thing I changed was the spinach. Fresh spinach is $7 a bag here so I went with frozen chopped.

I’m always curious about prices and how low a lot of American ones seem low. I priced it out in my area and it’d be just over $34 Canadian (and I know I’m in a more affordable area of Canada). It’s funny too seeing the different volume of foods. For example we don’t have rice in 1 lb bags, our smallest is 1 kg, so if I had to buy all the ingredients (and not pro-rate them for comparison sake) the bill would be even higher. The thrifty meal ideas are still appreciated, it’s just interesting to compare sometimes.

Some of the items I’d have to buy in bulk from Amazon if I was being really authentic to her recipes and not making substitutes, as we don’t get the same variety.

When I lived it Utah, I said the same thing about shredded cheese being more expensive than block, but living on the East Coast and in the Midwest has taught me that’s not always true.

This is an invaluable service- these items have been a staple for people (pastas, rice, dried beans, frozen/canned vegetables) for decades but have become kind of forgotten about in recent times. From families to singles, seniors to even broke young people learning to cook on their own for the first time, your cheerful reassuring demeanor (because when on a very tight budget, sometimes people are scared/ashamed and unsure what to make) and easy to follow steps really are wonderful. I’m blessed (very fortunate) with my personal food budget, but everyone should know these staples, because you just never know. Thank you! ❤

I am so impressed with what you have put together. Affordable, easy to make and obtain ingredients, satisfy a family of three (in our case) and even able to appease the picky eaters of my household (husband and special needs child). I like shopping "with you" and how you spread out the ingredients for the week. I ordered the recipe book. I'm really excited! Thank you!!
