Product Description
by Bobbie Stevenson (Author)
Cooking Through Hard Times brings back the resourcefulness and heart of Depression-era kitchens. These recipes were created when every ingredient mattered and nothing was wasted. Using simple pantry staples-flour, sugar, potatoes, beans, rice, onions-families made meals that were humble, filling, and full of love.
Inside this cookbook, you'll find:
- Classic Great Depression recipes like Copper Pennies, Slug Burgers & Hoover Stew
- Affordable meals made with 3-6 ingredients
- Modern instructions for today's kitchens (no special tools or skills required)
- Notes and variations to make recipes gluten-friendly or budget-adjusted
These dishes tell stories. They remind us that gathering around a table matters more than perfection. Meals don't require fancy ingredients-they require intention, connection, and people to share them with.
Whether you're cooking to save money, learn from history, or create meaningful moments in the kitchen, this book proves one thing:
Good food doesn't need much. Just a reason to gather..
