How to Cook Like in the Great Depression

November 18, 2009 by Jeffrey Strain

Looking for inexpensive meals on a tight budget? Look no further than Great Depression Cooking with Clara where 94 year old Clara teaches the meals she made during the great depression (the videos were made from the time she was 91 – 94) while telling stories of the past. A great combination that will leave a little extra change in your pocket while making you a healthy meal for about a dollar per serving – here are a few to give you a taste:

Poorman’s Meal

Depression Breakfast

Poorman’s Feast

Dandelion Salad

There are many more videos that you can follow on her YouTube channel at Depression Cooking
