Our table is surrounded by mom, dad, a kindergartener, a toddler, and the occassional guest. This blog is a chance for me to create a searchable list of favorite recipes.
Unlike many of my favorite blogs, I can't promise that every meal will be under five dollars, under 500 calories, or only created from sustainable and local ingredients. However, every meal will be tested by an expert panel of four judges and labeled to help you know how it fits into categories that might have significance to you. You will find meals in the following categories:
Price Index Label:
I aim to spend less than $13 a day on all family meals.
$=$0-$5 for a family of four
$$=$6-$10 for a family of four
$$$=$11 and above for a family of four
Family Approval Label:

**=two family members approve
***=three family members approve
