The $5 Dinner Mom Cookbook Review and Giveaway!

by Lee on March 10, 2010

Cookbookcover 223x300 The $5 Dinner Mom Cookbook Review and Giveaway!OMG. I know that is a funny way to start out a review but that is how I feel about this product. O-M-G. It is one of those products that has changed my life. It is really that amazing. The $5 Dinner Mom Cookbook by Erin Chase is not just a cookbook. It is also a life changing guide to shopping frugality and healthy eating.

Yes, 80% of The $5 Dinner Mom Cookbook is a cookbook. It’s a good one too. It contains recipes for nearly anything you could imagine eating. Rosemary Orange Chicken, Beef Curry with Raisins, Roasted Bell Pepper Rotini. Those all sound delicious right? Maybe they sound like something you’d probably only eat at a restaurant. Well now they are not only easy but they are inexpensive as well. $5 of less to be exact. Even better, these meals are healthy. Erin believes in using only the best products with little to no chemicals in her cooking and she shares this with us.

You might be wondering how it could be possible that all of these recipes could be so inexpensive? The answer is found at the beginning of the book. Erin Chase teaches us how to manage our budget better by making a list, carrying cash and clipping coupons. After you learn these basics she will also teach you about stockpiling. Find a good deal at the grocery store, use a coupon, buy in bulk and save even more. It is that simple with her help.

This all might sound like something you already knew, and if so that is great. I can bet you that Erin Chase will teach you something you didn’t know though. And for people like me who really didn’t know about most of this stuff it will be an eye opener.
