Cooking dinner on a daily basis can be tricky. Add shortage of time, lack of inspiration, spiralling food prices and a fussy little eater (or two) to the mix and it seems practically impossible.

But the good news is there are still dozens of wholesome, tasty, tried and tested recipes for you and your family to enjoy without breaking the bank or spending too much time shopping and cooking.

This book is full of economical, uncomplicated everyday recipes and tips for busy people everywhere - so if you've got LESS money than sense, help is at hand.

Author Biography: Gill Holcombe is passionate about feeding her kids good food. She grew up before the culture of convenience food took hold - and knows how to cook. Having brought up three children on her own for over ten years, she says the proof of the pudding is in the eating, and has three fit, healthy teenagers with loads of energy - and no fillings! Gill is author of the bestselling How to feed your whole family a healthy, balanced diet with very little money...and hardly any time, even if you have a tiny kitchen, only three saucepans (one with an ill-fitting lid) and no fancy gadgets - unless you count the garlic crusher... and lives in London with her family.
