About This Blog

What this blog IS:

This blog is meant to be a resource for those of us who are trying to cut down on the grocery budget. Dave Ramsey always says to live on "beans and rice, rice and beans." Well, I am convinced there is a way to do that while still eating great food!

And this blog is dedicated to just that. I will post any and all cheap recipes that I find to help give you ideas, and the ultimate goal is to get YOU to contribute as well. But, remember, these need to be CHEAP recipes - don't try and show off your culinary skills. We just want good, basic ideas. Until I can figure out a better way, please just email your recipes to penniesandrice@gmail.com. As soon as I get your email, I will post your recipe on the blog (and give you full credit, of course!). Hopefully we can compile a great list to feed those hungry mouths and starve that hungry budget.

What this blog IS NOT:

Be prepared to NOT find fancy, exciting, or tricky recipes on this blog. Most of them will be darn right normal. In other words, expect to be reminded of great, cheap ideas, not blown away by new discoveries. The goal is to have a compilation of every-day meal ideas that are easy on the wallet.

Thanks so much for joining us!
Happy cooking and happy saving!
