Good and cheap is a free cookbook based on the food stamp budget of $4 per day. It’s a free pdf from many sources including the authors website if you sign up for a newsletter or something and paper copies are very inexpensive.

That’s based on 2024 prices. I’d say it’s probably $8-12 / day based on food price inflation.
I’m sure it’s still a good book, though

The food inflation isn’t evenly distributed across all groceries. I hit $6 a day with little snacks and workout oriented meals with greater caloric content and higher Q factor in a bunch of different ways.
If you want to bring down your own grocery bill and go from zero to sixty on cooking at home I can’t recommend that book highly enough. You don’t have to suffer.
