It’s time to share your frugal and nourishing tips and recipes! Where do you shop for quality food at a lower price? What recipe saves a penny? How do you balance a budget with nourishing food? Share here.
Please read through the three simple rules for those participating. This helps keep the quality of our carnival. Please read them through before linking and thanks again for your continued participation.
1) No linking to giveaways or promotions for affiliates or sponsors. One thing that I’ve noticed increasingly on Pennywise Platter is that I am getting more and more promotional pieces for affiliates or sponsors and a lot of giveaways. I’ve decided to keep Pennywise less “commercial” and more in tune with the spirit of the carnival by not allowing these links anymore. There was nothing wrong with those of you who linked to them, I just think that it will protect the integrity of our carnival better without them. Plus, it makes our links valuable in the future as well. A link to a giveaway three months old isn’t going to be worth browsing in three months time, but a link to a recipe for a frugal soup would be. I will be deleting any giveaway links or promotional links.
2) Keep the ingredients “nourishing”, such as whole grains, meats, vegetables, legumes, unrefined salt and sugars, chicken, etc. I am not going to be an ingredient police every week, but if there is a link to a post that is obviously not filling any of the criteria for healthy (for example, a white flour, white sugar birthday cake), I will delete that link. However, feel free to post vegetarian, vegan, raw, low-carb, etc.
3) Link back to the carnival This is common carnival courtesy. And more then that, it helps build the community of the carnival as you are sending your readers to others participating. And please, as a blogger, check out other’s posts and leave a comment! I know that we would all love to hear from each other.

This week, I’m sharing an inexpensive and healthy Italian Chicken and Vegetable Quinoa: http://yellebellyboo.blogspot.com/2012/08/italian-chicken-and-vegetable-quinoa.html
If you want to make it vegetarian (and even less expensive), substitute the chicken for an extra can of navy beans. Enjoy!

Hi Kimi,
I’ve linked up a casserole dish made with homemade sausage (easy and tasty recipe; I used venison) and both Russet potatoes and sweet potatoes (the latter combined with a few other ingredients like milk, onions, etc. makes a wonderful cream sauce).
Thanks for hosting!

I shared my aunt’s simple recipe for chili that even a toddler will love. It’s frugal, easily multiplied, and can be divided to feed a crowd who loves both spicy and not. I hope you enjoy it!
