In Mama T’s Dinners by the Dime, you’ll learn how to cook like money’s tight—but pride is high. Written in the straight-talking, cast-iron voice of a seventy-year-old Southern grandmother from Shreveport, this no-nonsense cookbook delivers dirt-cheap dinners without skimpin’ on flavor, heart, or common sense.

Every chapter shows you how to stretch real ingredients into full meals that satisfy—without burnin’ your wallet. You’ll get skillet suppers, one-pan miracles, slow-cooked favorites, and pantry pull-togethers that feed a family of four on eight bucks or less. From rice that rules the table to casseroles built from scraps, this book teaches you how to make do without feelin’ like you’re missin’ out. No trendy gadgets, no overpriced superfoods—just the kind of cooking that keeps folks full and fed when times are lean.

You’ll learn how to treat meat like a flavor, not the centerpiece. You’ll master soup from freezer scraps, sandwiches that count as supper, and cold meals for when the heat’s high and the stove’s a threat. Mama T shares the truth behind grocery traps, teaches you how to shop smart, and shows you how to rework leftovers like a pro.

Whether you’re strugglin’, savin’, or just sick of wastin’ food, Mama T’s Dinners by the Dime is the tough-love guide to cheap, hearty, honest meals—served hot and seasoned with grit.

If you’ve ever stood in front of a near-empty fridge and thought, “Now what?”—this book is your answer.
