Plenty of books have been written about budgeting for families. Eating Well for Less Than $30 a Week is aimed at helping single people on limited incomes eat nutritious food without breaking the bank, based on planning weekly or fortnightly menus.
In the first section, I address the question, Am I getting enough food?
Here I outline a typical weekly menu, which forms the basis for that week’s food purchases. The cost of these items is shown in detail in Section 4.
Other sections cover eating while travelling, health issues, food storage, and tips for people working outside the home. I have also provided some recipes for cheap meals that can be prepared quickly and easily.
This is a down-to-earth, commonsense guide to budgeting, with nutritional and health information thrown in for good measure.
