frugal_cook“Buy cleverly. Waste less. Eat well.”

That’s the slogan of The Frugal Cook, a book by blogger Fiona Beckett. Published late last year, the book is full of great advice: how to cut your food bill, the art of using leftovers, the skill of stretching food, how to be more efficient, portion control, waste disposal, and storing food safely. It also contains great recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and, best of all, an A-Z of ingredients and leftovers. I’ve been using it a lot lately and it’s great.
