About RecessionRecipes.net
This site is more than a collection of recipes. It is our effort to help you to get through tough economic times by learning to cook healthy food on a budget. Whether you’re unemployed or cutting back to save money just in case, some skills are important to have.
Partly due to social changes, and partly due to the laziness that comes with more prosperous conditions, people often forget that we’re all vulnerable to nature. Stuff happens, and it’s a good idea to stay ready. Besides, certain things can happen even in good times that force people who want to stay healthy to seek alternatives to the norm when it comes to food buying and cooking.
Where it’s good that the food industry has done what it can to make food relatively inexpensive in some areas, it’s bad that it’s so difficult to find something as simple as bread that doesn’t contain harmful food additives. So making things from scratch even when they’re sold in the store is not only cheaper, but better for your health in the long run.
