$30 cooking budget - could you do it?
Especially in NYC?
And even if you could do it, would it be worth blogging about? Probably not if it was me doing the shopping and cooking!
BUT, this little blog, 30 Bucks a Week does, and does it incredibly well. They’re vegetarians, which cuts out a chunk of the grocery bill, and shop at a Co-Op (note to self: find Co-Op for incredibly cheap food) in Brooklyn, and I’m already drooling over several of their recipes.
Even if you aren’t a vegetarian, adding at least one (or one more) meatless meal a week is a great way to lower your grocery budget AND help the environment!








I’ll have to have a look, I spent more than that for just one meal today with having a couple of people over! Though I do eat meat I think I should start investigating with more vegetarian meals as it does seem to be the price of meat that raises the shopping bill a lot.
I shall go an investigate that blog now!
