Featured Recipe: Slow Cooker Short Ribs

Filled with invaluable tips on saving big bucks at the grocery store, Money Saving Meals & Round 2 Recipes cookbook gives a cost breakdown for each recipe (including everyday costs, the money-saving pricing, and the total savings), so that readers can see what they save and what they spend with every dish. Each menu combination offers one main dish and an additional “round 2” recipe — a recipe developed using the same base ingredient as the main recipe, with the concept of buying a little more of the ingredient and making a lot more out of it.

Included in Money Saving Meals & Round 2 Recipes are 149 easy and satisfying meals, such as Grilled Pork Chops with Peach Salsa with Caprese Salad Stuffed Tomatoes, Chocolate-Chip Shortcake, and a Watermelon Martini — plus a Grilled Margherita Pizza and Orzo Soup with Pork for the Round 2 recipes. Other dishes include Chicken Tacos with Cucumber Salsa, Beanless Beef Chili, S’mores Pudding Parfait, and Pumpkin Pie Martini.

Sandra also offers a list of ready-made convenience products that are cheaper to buy than to make from scratch, and she provides a cost comparison of what you’d save if you cooked the “Round 2” way twice a week, three times a week, four times a week, and the entire week, for one year.
