Here's what readers have to say:

“I like this book for its boots-on-the-ground practicality. From portion size, to daily menus with the recipes for them; weekly shopping lists with prices; workable substitutes when you don't have something on the shelf; informative conversions which tell for instance, that 8oz dry spaghetti equals 4 cups cooked and how reading that “Food Label” can be a guide into healthy choices for my family. This knowledge helps me.

Many thanks from, “I can do this”, in upstate NY”

"I particularly liked the way this book lets you approach cutting the food budget in a few different ways so that there was help for you if you like to follow directions exactly or if you prefer to understand the general idea and then create your own plans. The authors clearly set out an approach which can be personalized; they also recognize that sometimes a hardline austerity budget is needed for a short period, and that it is possible to "tighten your belt" for a little while and stay healthy, but then add more choices when funds come available. The clarity of prose and the lack of typos or other mistakes which can plague both self-published and publishing house books makes the book a pleasure to read. I would recommend donating a few to your local food shelf or homeless shelter as well as keeping one for yourself.
In the interest of full disclosure, I am related to the authors, but I'm also a tough old broad and wouldn't give a positive review if it weren't well-deserved."
