A short shopping list and generations of hard-earned kitchen knowledge were enough to keep families fed through the Great Depression. I’m sharing 25 cheap, practical suppers my grandmother Opal taught me, including how families made them stretch through the week.
I learned these lessons in an Eastern Ohio farm kitchen, where little went to waste and the garden, henhouse, and woods supplied what money couldn’t buy. Stay with me through number 25—it was served in the White House on purpose.
