The cookies I am sharing are one’s my entire family gobbles down in minutes, they ALL love them…and in a family our size…that’s saying a lot! They are a version that tastes mainly like a regular ch. chip cookie, but the add-in’s up the nutrients and make it taste even better! Enjoy!

I’m using your Thursday carnival to inspire me next month with a focus on frugal, real food recipes. My plan is to price out recipes based on organic or sustainably produced real food. I did this before, but without using organic or sustainably produced ingredients.

While beer can chicken may not sound like a nourishing food necessarily, it’s a wonderful way to make a super moist, flavorful, and healthy roasted chicken. Chickens can be a frugal meal, too. One chicken can go a long way and you’ll be happy it did when it’s as good as the one resulting from this recipe.
Enjoy!

This week I’m sharing a recipe for a super quick and delicious raw zucchini salad. And if you don’t like truffles, it’s just as tasty with regular salt.

Hi I just added some gluten free and vegan recipes from our mushroom site. They are kid tested an oh so easy to create!
My biggest suggestions for being frugal is to 1) grow your own veggies 2) do NOT shop at WalMart! Yes, do NOT shop there! The prices are NOT lower than your local small family owned grocery store if you are watching, talk to your produce man about case lots if you can. 3) buy a cow – a half – or a quarter directly from the grower! In our area after processing – Cert. OG Grassfed beef runs about 2.69 per pound no matter the cut! You read that right! It doesn’t matter if it is a fancy roast (that typically runs $3-5 per pound) or T-Bone which can be as much as $10-12 per pound or your fav. low fat ground beef which around here an 85% runs about 2.69 per pound. By purchasing directly from the grower you get to see how your cow is raised and how it is handled at the processors shop… is it dry hung for 17-20 days? and do they add nasty filler to the burger or do they take from the cows own fat to add to the burger? I’m getting the fat from this next cow and making tallow for candle and soap making. I’m so happy to be using all of the cow! I’m also going to let the processor know that we have dogs that would like to have the hooves and anything else that could be used as ‘pet products’. Our son is 14 and I think I am going to ask for the hide for him as well. He is interested in tanning and making raw hide as well for soles of shoes. Nothing will be wasted and each piece of this red or black angus will be cared for from start to finish.
Do you own the book Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon? If not you may wish to get one. Not only is it filled with nourishing traditional recipes from our ancestors, it also has studies and load of other information that you will enjoy reading. In it is a recipe utilizing whey (you make) to create a raw corned beef. Yes, our ancestors ate corned beef, but it wasn’t laden with chemicals like the garbage we buy in the stores. They preserved and ‘cooked’ it with the lactic acid from their own whey then added spices and herbs to season. Sliced it raw (as it was cooked by the lactic acid) and it was super nutritious! I’ve made it, but I couldn’t ‘Not’ throw it in the oven… It was AMAZING! I’m Irish and corned beef is just a part of my traditions. I will share the recipe another time.
Thanks!

One of the most frugal and still tasty and healthy recipes I’ve been making lately is black beans in the crock pot. I found a great recipe on line and it is essentially dry black beans (no soaking required!), canned crushed tomatoes, chopped onion, chopped bell pepper, and a bunch of seasonings/spices. It is really tasty (I’m not normally a bean person) and it makes a TON! We eat typically with fresh tortillas (a friend got me hooked on the fresh in the fridge tortillas from Costco that you just cook up really quickly – wow they are good!), maybe some guac (realistically, the avocadoes are the most expensive thing in this set up), and some shredded cheese. Easy, inexpensive, and tasty – what a great combo!
