April at An Apple A Day Wisdom has put together a new e-book designed to help you stretch your budget and make the most of every bit of produce titled “Don’t Compost It, Cook It: How to Make the Most Out of Nothing in the Kitchen!“.
As a single mom, April knows about frugality, and has come up creative ways to utilize her CSA share – completely. Recipes range from soups to beverages, and also include salads and dressings, main dishes and proteins.
She also discusses CSAs (Community Supported Agriculture) arrangements – what they are, why they make sense, how they save you money and how to find one near you. Bargain hunting for pennywise produce is also covered in detail, along with other ideas for using produce “discards” such as citrus vinegar cleaning solutions.
I know a lot of you need to make every dollar count, so I’m really happy to be able to share a free copy of this book with one lucky Common Sense Homesteading reader. Just use the rafflecopter widget below to enter the giveaway (those viewing the post via email or RSS will need to click through to the website to see the widget). The giveaway ends at 12:01 am on 06/11/2012 and I’ll contacting the winner within 24 hours.
If you can’t wait to have a look, you can purchase the book right now. For a limited time, it’s available for only $2.99. Click here to buy it today. It’s available as a pdf, and also in kindle or nook versions.
I hope you’ll be inspired like I was to give those kitchen “scraps” a second look. ![]()
