All recipes have been tested by professional home economists. This cookbook is written for those who care about their own health and the food needs of others in the world. Average Rating:
 Rating: - After 30 years still my favoriteThis was the first cookbook I purchased and have used it extensively for the past 30 years. It is my go-to book for creating healthy frugal meals - frugal in cost, and frugal in resources. Most of the recipes are simple and basic so can be easily used as a base for your own experimentation. I have given away dozens of copies of this book and hope it never goes out of print. Rating:  - OutdatedMaybe I was disappointed in this because I'm looking at it from a bit of an insider's perspective, since we didn't buy much packaged food anyway when I was a kid, but this is really only helpful if you're currently heavily dependent on pre-prepared meals or processed foods, and utterly ignorant about making anything from scratch. I'm not trying to be confrontational, but this is very basic cooking. If you're already semi-accustomed to cooking anything from staple ingredients, you've learned 7/8 ... Read More Rating: - DisappointingThis is a strange little book. I will say that is has some redeeming features: some good granola, bread and dessert recipes for people who are already confident in the kitchen. However, a number of the main dishes are just odd (beef heart, anyone?). The recipes are consistently loaded with unnecessary fat - cheese on the vegetables? ground beef in minestrone? more than one creamed chicken recipe? More importantly, this book didn't contribute much to the frugality of my kitchen. If you grew up in a ... Read More Rating: - Cookbook With A Message - RecommendedThe "More-With-Less Cookbook" is a real gem. My wife has had a copy for years and turns to it often for meal ideas. I will be ordering a new copy since hers is really worn out. The included 500 recipes are all interesting, and mostly very practical, but the real value of this book is in the outlook provided by Doris Longacre. I have found myself skimming through the book and enjoying her insites. So, for some very good and practical recipes, and for down to earth wisdom, this ... Read More Rating: - Worth Revisiting This book taught me ways to save that have probably saved me a few thousand dollars over the 20 years I've owned it. First, the authors point out ways to avoid so-called "time saving" products that cost more, and often unhealthy, and really don't save time anyway. Second, I learned ways to make use of leftovers - like throwing a variety of vegetables, meats and grains from the fridge into a soup or casserole.
