Hey friend! I’m so glad you found Good Cheap Eats where our mission is to help you make the most of every minute and every grocery dollar.
I’m Jessica, chief cook and meal planner at my house. I do life with my husband, Bryan, and five of our six kids who live at home. Our crew includes a young IT professional, three college students, and a high schooler.
Bryan and I have had busy days with lots of littles running around as well as busy days with lots of young adults all doing their thing. Some day we know the nest will be empty.
Through it all we want two constants: lots of love and good cheap eats.
To that end, we’ve created a Choose Your Own Adventure here on the blog, to help YOU enjoy more great meals in whatever season you find yourself. In addition to 1000+ budget-friendly recipes to tempt your tummy, we specialize in money-saving strategies that take you beyond recipes and help you level up your savings game.
