Good and Cheap: Eat Well on $4/Day

As a lifelong foodie, the recipes are well written and the ones I have tried were outstanding.
The recipes were well researched ,simple and quick to make.
This book leads you back to cooking at home and saving money, not to mention eating healthier as well.
Stop wasting your money and live longer!

Recipes are simple, good, and inexpensive and it feels great to know you're providing free copies to people who really need a book like this. I gave them as Christmas presents to many members of my family....

The recipies are not only cheap, but delicious! I've only made about 5 recipes so far, but they've all turned out well. There's no specific focus on health, and certainly some of these recipes are high calorie, but for the most part they seem well balanced with a high focus on fruits, vegetables, and beans and a low focus on meats.

Many recipes are too complex and other pages are just fillers as in the whole page display of the different things you can put on your oatmeal. All in all, not worth the money and I'm sorry I bought it.

This little book is very interesting. I at one time was a middle income maker. Now I am only a few hundred dollars above the poverty line after that financial debacle we went thru around 2008. There are ways to make some really good and nutritious meals on the cheap. Brimming with variety. I love it.

It arrived on time, and Is well worth the money spent on it.

This book is an excellent guideline for those who are trying to eat healthy on a budget. I found some of the suggestions in this book to be quite helpful. I haven't had this book a week, and have already implemented 4 of the recipes. I plan to use this book frequently. It is very well written and easy to understand. I found the recipes I've tried to be simple, yet delicious.

Our clients often complain that eating healthy is expensive, and this book shows us otherwise. I've already gifted several to clients!

Is cooking at home as easy as buying fast food off the value menu? No, but you don't want value menu health, do you?

Three and a half stars. I enjoyed the premise very much, and the thoughts in the introduction, but I don't feel like the book really follows through on the premise. The recipes sound decent enough, but I don't believe they are in the right line to convince the people at my food bank to give them a go. I need a book just like this, but halfway towards people who eat a lot of processed food and breads to help bridge the gap in learning how to cook or how to cook again!

Leanne Brown does a great job of breaking down the basics. Even if cooking cheaply isn't your main concern, this book is great for getting started in the kitchen. Perfect for college students or post-grads.
