As we're all looking to stretch our grocery budgets these days, thought I'd share this one.
I was actually so impressed at how well she stretched the $ and how easy and healthy these meals were that I went to her site and bought her cookbook 😆
Get it, girl!

![Home, imagined, comes to be. It is real, realer than any other place, but you can’t get to it unless your people show you how to imagine it—whoever your people are. They may not be your relatives. They may never have spoken your language. They may have been dead for a thousand years. They may be nothing but words printed on paper, ghosts of voices, shadows of minds.
But they can guide you home. They are your human community.
All of us have to learn how to invent our lives, make them up, imagine them. We need to be taught these skills; we need guides to show us how. Without them, our lives get made up for us by other people.
Human beings have always joined in groups to imagine how best to live and help one another carry out the plan. The essential function of human community is to arrive at some agreement on what we need, what life ought to be, what we want our children to learn, and then to collaborate in learning and teaching so that we and they can go on the way we think is the right way [....]
In our time of huge populations exposed continuously to reproduced voices, images, and words used for commercial and political profit, there are too many people who want to and can invent us, own us, shape and control us through seductive and powerful media. It’s a lot to ask of a child to find a way through all that alone. Nobody can do anything very much, really, alone.
What a child needs, what we all need, is to find some other people who have imagined life along lines that make sense to us and allow some freedom, and listen to them. Not hear passively, but listen.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kcj35i7f3dmexeai3lluktdl/bafkreigrsrmsuyrlrw53egjn6mkqxohlsvaw4zhvqtmxrcjy4cvievskly)
