The author spent more talking about what a small house she had and where she put her cookbooks and how much time it takes to do OAMC than how I was actually going to feed my family of 4 on $200 a month. When she finally got to that part, I got excited but was completely let down when her idea of meals was Taco Pasta and Sweet and Sour Kielbasa. I don't eat either and wouldn't be interested in serving them to my family.I was expecting realistic numbers but what I got wasn't even in the ballpark. Chicken for 33 cents a pound isn't available anywhere in my community and I don't know anywhere that I can buy several loaves of bread for $2, not even at the discount bakery.Recipes are included but as mentioned, they're not anything I would cook and she doesn't do any explaining about why they're low cost meals. She also doesn't serve very many vegetables along with her meals. Just a salad here and there. So in the end, I didn't learn how to feed my family of 4 for less than $200 a month and I feel like I wasted my time.
