Erin Chase, the woman who proved that $5 meals can be both healthy and appealing (even to kids), is at it again. To promote another session of her five-week “Grocery Budget Makeover” online course, Chase is offering a free video workshop.
The entrepreneur is mom to four boys and also the creator of (among other things) the $5 Dinners concept, a class on Instant Pot cooking and a series of cookbooks. The goal of her Grocery Budget Makeover is to teach consumers how to cut their food spending in half.
Specifically, she wants to “change the way you shop for groceries – forever.”
The free workshop – actually a handful of short videos – is designed to give you a taste (so to speak) of the course.
Chase cooks for everyday people but her recipes are far from plebeian. She is careful about processed foods, due to food allergies in her family. Cooking with whole ingredients means getting more value from your grocery dollars.
Yet she also takes into account the busy-ness of modern lives. As someone who is also quite busy (did I mention her four kids?), she doesn’t spend hours every day peeling, chopping and comparison-shopping. Nor does she expect students to do so.
This time around she’s doing only the “classic” version of the Grocery Budget Makeover, vs. the “extreme” format. Registration starts Wednesday (Jan. 3) and ends Monday, Jan. 8. The class begins Tuesday, Jan. 9, and costs $49.
But you can access the free workshop right now, and through Friday. Give it a try.
Link not working.
Yikes! Fixed. Thank you for letting me know.
I hope you received some financial benefit for posting this.
Did you watch the videos?
They were very instructive in promotion and how to overcome objection but not much else.
Donna, you are much more frugal than this woman.
The videos are just a taste of what Erin teaches. She is careful with her food spending because, as noted, she has four kids and food allergies are a factor in her recipes.
My brand of frugal food-ism isn’t for everyone’s taste, either. I know full well that many, many people will never do a boiling bag or pick all the bits of meat off the turkey carcass after it’s been boiled for stock in order to get enough little pieces to make a turkey pie. Erin’s recipes and tactics have much broader appeal.
Thanks for reading, and for leaving a comment.
Oh, I love your brand of frugal foodism! 🙂 🙂
So do I!!
Thanks to you both, Kai and FrugalStrong. I love being able to share the food hacks because I know that readers (mostly) won’t say, “Eeewww!” or “Isn’t that a lot of work?”
