“I think [generations today] may have lost some of the know-how, but they certainly haven’t lost the ability,” she says.The single most effective way to eat healthy within budget is to learn the seasons of your favourite fruit and vegetables, says Ms O’Keefe.
Heading into autumn, freshly harvested carrots, potatoes and pumpkins will be at their best and cheapest in coming weeks, and shoppers will see the last of the summer strawberry and plum harvests make way for apples and pears.“Even with the smallest backyard, you can have a couple of silverbeet plants and a couple of crowns of rhubarb. So you’ve always got a green vegetable for dinner meal, and you’ve always got some rhubarb that you can cook up for dessert.
“Then you’ve got those fresh herbs to flavour dishes, and they can be expensive to buy and if you don’t use it all straight away, it can get wasted.”Cutting back on meat is an obvious answer to the eye-watering cost at the butcher counter, but Ms O’Keefe says people can also re-learn to love cheaper cuts of meat in a slow cooker.“We’re going into the cooler weather now, so you’ve got your chuck steak, also known as casserole steak, or lamb quarter chops.
To stop a jar of opened tomato paste going mouldy in the fridge, cover the surface of the paste with olive oil.Don’t throw out bread crusts. Dry in low oven until crispy and whizz in food processor to make dry breadcrumbs. Store in an airtight container.Left-over cooked pasta or rice can be added to meatballs to make them go further.

Jaysus, you can’t save I if you haven’t got it.
I'll just pop down to my orchard then. That's my problem, I leave my orchard unattended.
She literally has her own orchard. I mean, good luck to her but I don't see how she is well placed to be giving out this kind of advice.
'only buy fresh fruit and veg in season and dont eat expensive cuts of meat' this is equal parts offensive and hilariously out of touch.
OK I'll just pop to the pile of orchards over there & get one Don't know how I'll fit it into my rented one bedroom no balcony, no courtyard, very dim basement apartment But great to know my cost of living problems will be over Why didn't I think of that before THANK YOU SO MUCH
George Orwell described how the poor had no greater enemy than middle class ladies dispensing charity and advice how to live frugally.
I think you mean Tax The Rich and introduce a UBI right? Because surely, in 2021, we’ve moved beyond the fallacy that people who are struggling financially are somehow in need of ‘handy hints’ and not direct support and assistance from the government who collects their taxes?!!!!
The handy hint is vote Green. Over the poverty line .
It shouldn't even have to be like this. Agenda2030 Global cabal have rolled out this scenario in most most of the western countries.
I am sure she is a lovely lady, but her pantry is larger than many bedrooms.
Why isn't there a FUEL WATCH website? The media went berserk at the Rudd government to build one.
... and vote Morrison out.

Scott Morrison and Anthony Albanese are in a race to become Australia's next Prime MinisterOPINION: In the weeks before an election is to be called, the biblical words from Corinthians should ring loudly. Alba for me. ffnn_alm Wonder who will tell the most lies, this will be very interesting, neither in my opinion are up to the job, personal slates, must somehow be made mandatory to be kept out of political arguments, the arguments must be on policies only. In any other professional workplace, bullying is not allowed. Yet if you watch question time, all the politicians seem to bully each other and these people are our leaders? We are meant to look up to these people? Set an example for tour country!

Practice? Is that what stupid journalism calls campaigning on the taxpayers dollars? Weak Journalism. Is the election date known? One who has company that hates women, and the other who has company that are drunkard womanisers.
