Your favorite $5 dinner mom, Erin, is translating her site into a book full of recipes that will each feed a family of four for just $5.

One of the things I like about Erin’s recipes is the fact they are pretty varied and healthy, so even vegetarians can get some great recipes. Although we’re not sure exactly what recipes will end up in the book,you can pre-order now.

Congrats to Erin for the book deal, and congrats on the new baby!

Time saving *and* money saving, the crockpot is the origin of many a healthy meal for your family. Check out the comments too, as there are a lot of good ideas there.

And yes, the crockpot is good for vegetarians too! I cook all kinds of tasty bean and vegetable stews using quality veggie broth (Trader Joe’s has a great one). Here’s some more ideas for the non-carnivores.
