A Pair of Announcements

Friday, May 9, 2014

Sweet readers! The links are coming a little later today, but first: Leigh and I wrote an opinion piece for CNN. Its here: Want Healthy Kids? Learn How to Cook.

In related news, Husband-Elect and I will be appearing tomorrow morning on CBS The Early Show to discuss the $25 Food Project. We are super excited, and currently in desperate search of things to wear.

See you back here in a few hours.

In the meantime, hello everyone from CNN! If you’re visiting the blog for the first time, welcome! We’re so happy to have you. Bathroom’s on the left. If you’re a longtime reader, we love you! We’re not kidding. Its a little scary.

To get an idea of what CHG is all about, our FAQ and mission statement are good places to begin. To go a little deeper, these six posts give a pretty solid overview of what we do here:
  1. Spend Less, Eat Healthier: The Five Most Important Things You Can Do

  6. Relax, Frugal Eater: A Measured Approach to Lifestyle Changes
Our master article directory of over 135 similar pieces can be found here. We also post one or two frugal, healthy, and delicious recipes per week, which are compiled here. Theres something like 300 right now, and we’re always adding to the list. Here are ten fairly simple favorites to get you started:
  • Asparagus, Mushroom, and Parmesan Frittata
  • Baked Apples
  • Egg Drop Soup
  • Honey-glazed Roasted Carrots
  • Indonesian Curried Bean Stew
  • Light(er) Macaroni and Cheese
