Free USDA Booklet- Recipes and Tips for Healthy, Thrifty Meals.

Even if you don't use any of the recipes, I highly recommend reading the free online booklet from the USDA for planning family meals on a budget.

There are many nice recipes included in this book along with menu plans that include those recipes.

I highly recommend reading through the tips in this booklet. They offer basic tips that every good cook should know. They also cover menu planning.
