This is from the Homesteading forum I read. Ran into this wealth of info thought I'd share it with you all. Page after page of recipes. Old Cookbooks-Thrifty Recipes There have been quite a few posts lately about grocery bills, and eating cheaply, cooking from scratch etc. and I got to thinking, last fall I was given a bag of old church cookbooks dating anywhere from 1957 to the mid 80's. The bag got shoved in the back of a cupboard and forgotten about until I came across it a couple of days ago. I started reading through them tonight and there is a wealth of information in them, many recipes with very basic ingredients and many of them sound delicious. So I thought that as I read them I could post the ones that catch my eye as basic, staple ingredient, frugal, thrifty recipes. http://www.homesteadingtoday.com/country-homemaking/cooking/530614-old-cookbooks-thrifty-recipes.html
