Frozen vegetables are definitely the more cost-effective answer to fresh, but we also shouldn't suggest that one always go for frozen or canned over fresh. Am I the only one who was also bothered by the powdered milk suggestion?

Exactly what I have been saying all along, but I don't have a newspaper column. It is so nice to see somebody writing of eating well on a budget instead of writing about eating more hotdogs and fries to make the budget stretch. Those recipes look delicious! I have made lentil soup with fresh spinach for years, now I will try using kale. I love Jane Brody’s advice. Exactly what I have been saying all along, but I don’t have a newspaper column.
