With the current state of the ecomony many different chefs have jumped on the budgeting bandwagon. I've recently found a list of new food budgeting cookbooks. I have no complaints about any of them! Ask for these for you're stocking, or give them as a Christmas gift to help others save.
1. Ken Kostick $10 Gourmet. http://www.kenkostick.biz/gourmet.html
Ken Kostick has recently returned to Canadian television and is currently a spokesperson for Starfrit kitchen products. His new book, released on Nov. 20th, has creative and "fancy" dishes for roughly $10! This book may be hard to find in the U.S.A as he is a Canadian author but I highly recommend the book if you can find it!
2. The $5 Mom Cookbook. http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/books/Dinner-Mom-Cookbook-Recipes-Quick-Erin-Chase/9780312607333-item.html?ref=Books%3a+May+We+Recommend
This book is geared for families on the go. Not only are the meals fast to prepare for the busy family but they cost $5 per serving which is incredibly economical for families. The best thing is this book has 200+ ideas and recipes!
3. Betty Crocker Quick and Easy Cookbook. http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/books/Betty-Crocker-Quick-Easy-Cookbook-Betty-Crocker/9780470530771-item.html?ref=Search+Books%3a+%2527cookbooks%2527
Betty Crocker is famous for putting out cookbooks that are simple, fast and cheap to make. This cookbook is specifically geared for fast and inexpensive meals. The thing I enjoy about this book is they don't have complicated ingredients that will be hard to find in certain areas of North America. They also don't assume that the people buying the cookbooks are chefs already. This is a great find!
4. Any Best of Bridge book! http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/books/Complete-Best-Bridge-Cookbook-Volume-The-Best-Of-Bridge/9780778802068-item.html?ref=Search+Books%3a+%2527cookbooks%2527
I grew using the Best of Bridge cookbooks. My mom and grandma would buy every new book in the series and go through all the recipes! The Best of Bridge is a series that not only has recipes for the "everyday cook", but also has recipes that everybody would find challenging. I have always enjoyed the diversity with the recipes in the Best of Bridge series. Also, there are over 20 books to choose from.
5. Unfortunately I don't have a link or even a name for this book but check your local Shoppers Drug Mart. Currently Shoppers has a section of budget friendly cookbooks for the holidays! All locations are different so check out a few different ones!
