There are other recipes I plan to try too. <br /><br />Evidently some foods which are expensive here in Canada are frugal in the UK (lamb, Stilton...). I haven't seen a frugal Canadian cookbook though.Canadiannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362152498675364583.post-62639381773571280782011-06-16T13:04:12.867+01:002011-06-16T13:04:12.867+01:00Thankyou @FrugalStudent!Thankyou @FrugalStudent!Fiona Becketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12970779962455905201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362152498675364583.post-41762634089896112692011-06-13T18:35:25.723+01:002011-06-13T18:35:25.723+01:00I'm trying to figure out where to leave this c...I'm trying to figure out where to leave this comment. I just found you though another blog and yum. I am still learning to cook, and trying to cook frugally is hard for me. I love almost every recipe I have read on here. I'm going to add you to my blog list and keep up from now on.

Too bad I have the old edition, as I'd love to see the photos - wouldn't be very frugal to buy another copy I guess...it's ages since I've looked at it and now I want to (but as we're moving house, it's in a box somewhere). But I feel inspired to make frittata for tea as we still have lots of eggs from when they were on special offer and I couldn't remember how many I needed (17 in the end...) for the 12" tier of my wedding cake (that's not very frugal, but it will hopefully feed a lot)verityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16825551404394913715noreply@blogger.com
