I'd like to share a wonderful resource that I found via Wisebread!
The USDA has created a website with resources for users of food stamps. On said website, one can search for inexpensive recipes, complete with cost breakdown and nutritional information! I'm already really excited to try some of these.
As I'm trying to cut down on my food budget, I'm finding the absolute best way to do so is to COOK! Many times, I just don't feel like it, and if I don't have a plan I'm sunk. However, if I have a menu set up, even a very flexible one, it gives me that little push to go ahead and make something with what I have on hand.
Maybe I'll even join Organizing Junkie with her Menu Plan Monday when I get back from vacation!

Okay...so I just found your blog :) And that website looks really cool. We are definitely trying to cut down on our food budget this year and that means lots more cooking! I'm going to take a closer look at that website. It looks really cool. Have you found lots of good recipes?
