Frugal Cooking - Low Cost Food

Frugal cooking is all about making more with less, saving energy and reducing carbon emissions whilst enjoying a good wholesome diet.

Our grandparents ate frugally, they didn't waste and throw away perfectly good food. They made more from less and the free recipes for low cost meals on this site will enable you to feed your family for less by making the most of what you eat. Learn how to get more for your money and help the planet at the same time.

We eat too much meat for our own health, never mind our purse or the planet and our vegetarian recipes will taste just as good as any meat or fish meal. Learn how to stretch the meat you eat with vegetable protein and to cook with low cost cuts of meat.

Find out what to do with leftovers to produce meals you and your family will enjoy.

Learn how to slow cook with our crock pot recipes and how to make fantastic and filling soups.

This site is being developed and will be properly online in February 2009. In the meantime here is a selection of low cost recipes using vegetables from Allotment Vegetable Growing.
