Stuffed Pie with Gravy - one of my
favourite recipes from the book! |
Hooray! My new budget recipe ebook, Cheaper than Chips, is now
available to buy on Amazon – click here to find it. It’s taken plenty of hard
work and lots of recipe-testing (not just by me, but by a team of family and
friends – thanks chaps!) so I’m really proud that the final result is now out
there for all to see. A quick word to anyone who doesn’t own an ebook reader –
you don’t need one to read my book! There’s a free Kindle app available here
which means you can view ebooks on your computer, tablet or smartphone.
These days, most people are trying to save a few pennies
here and there, and since food shopping is one of the biggest household
expenses, it’s an obvious place to try and streamline the budget. But I firmly
believe that saving money on your food shopping doesn’t have to mean buying ‘cheap’
ingredients and ready-made shortcuts – instead, I reckon that cooking the right
recipes from scratch can help you save money whilst still eating delicious
dishes.

Each chapter in Cheaper than Chips focuses on one of my best
budgeting tips, with recipes to help you put it into practice, so that you can
start saving money on your weekly shop straight away. I’ve also included plenty
of general advice which can help you save money without even changing the sort
of thing you usually buy – it’s all about how you shop.
If you’re a student or young person getting to grips with
doing your own food shopping and cooking, then I particularly hope my book will
be helpful to you – as well as the above, I’ve also included advice on buying
equipment for your kitchen and stocking your store-cupboard, as well as
step-by-step instructions and plenty of pictures to make the recipes easy to
follow. If you’re going to university this year, make sure you’ve got my ebook
on your phone to help you enjoy good food and
stretch your cash a bit further.

Making your own versions of supermarket
shortcuts like cereal bars is a great way to
save money, plus you can make them much
more delicious! |
Finally, this book wouldn’t have been possible without
everything I’ve learnt from blogging, so I have to thank you, dear reader, for
sticking with me, whether you discovered me last week or you’ve been with me
since the beginning. I always love to hear from you, and would particularly like
to hear your thoughts on Cheaper than Chips, so please do get in touch! You can
always leave me a comment here or send me an email using the contact form, and
if you’ve got a few minutes to leave a review for the book on Amazon then I’d
be hugely grateful.
