I love Clara!!! She has a few videos that show you how to cook meals just like she did during the Great Depression.
This is great for starving college students too!
Here's her first video:

I learned to cook from my greatgrandmother and my husbands grandmother. They were both great cooks and knew how to stretch a dollar.

Listen, American people, I know it's difficult to even understand with the mind these things that may (or not) come but the fact is most of the world have been living without too much food for a loooong time. I belong to these "other" in spite of the fact I lived both in USA and Canada and I gotta tell you: you WILL survive, just need to learn to get rid of garbage food you have been consuming. As a matter of fact I'm a good cook as well. And I have survived with my parents and brother during the difficult times of a country which suffered under the terrorists.
With a single chicken leg or 2 you can feed 4 people. Just get an onion or 2 and chopp the pieces of chicken (take everything out of the bone). First you fried the chopped onion (in tiny pieces) with a minimal amount of oil, then you fried the chicken or a single steak (or a combo of whatever meat you have: bacon, red meat & chicken or fish) or whatever and you can add a single tomatoe if you find or just that onion. And then you can serve it over the noodles.
You can do exactly the same with rice. Add soya sauce to the rice and a couple of scrambled eggs and some fried pieces of peas plus a single pepper and you will have a Chinese sort of meal for 4 people.
Consume jelly is a good thing and also pop corn which is not that expensive. Peanuts, almonds, nuts. Pieces of chocolate would allow you to be satisfied enough time just like drinking coffee.
I was a kind of guy who had to eat at least 3 breads in the breakfast. In order to change my habits I reduced to just a couple and then a single bread and then I took out most of the interior just leaving the crust. I don't spend no more in sugar 'cos I eliminated sugar from my life because sugar actually feeds cancer. Even black coffee with 3 or 4 drops of lemon is excellent.
Hence, as a general rule of thumb, chopp whatever meat in little pieces and you can boil it or fry it and mix with rice, noodles, potatoes or just salad. |

It's well known very poor people survive just boiling THE BONES of the chicken or a cow (whatever) adding an egg, a carrot or whatever available. |

This would be a good candidate for recession proof GLP OP. Change the Subject to have recession proof GLP in front and it will become searchable in the topics for those seeking help in tough times.

I'm pretty sure links to Clara's videos were included in at least one the Recession Proof threads. That's where I found her videos for the first time, or it was in one of the "how did our grandparents survive the great depression" threads, I can't remember. I love Clara. Thanks for keeping her in rotation, OP...! She deserves it. Elijah is right though.. it would make her easier to find.

"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status-quo. You can quote them. Disagree with them. Glorify, or villify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do."-Jack Kerouac

This is a great skill you can start learning now.
I like cooking like this. I can whip up a batch of stew, or soup or just about anything quick and with just a few ingredients.
And, it is true, most of us eat too much, and too much of rich foods. After the initial hunger and cravings you might find yourself feeling and looking better.
My mother gets those 'Reminisce' magazines that contain stories and photos from times past. Those folks that lived even 50 years ago looked so much healthier, slimmer and brighter eyed.
It 'ain't gonna' be easy, but it certainly can be done.

Clara rocks! I tried her recipe for potatoes, peas, and pasta and it's great. She's a neat lady. Makes me nervous though when she slices toward her hand. We need more of Clara. |

I made the "poorman's dinner" (potatoes, onions, hot dogs) a couple of days ago, and it was surprisingly GOOD!
It's not a combination that I normally would've expected to work, but I'll definitely make it again. :-) |

I made that too, used bologna, very good! Soon I will try it with the Spam I have stocked.
The channel is produced by Christopher Cannucciari of 'New Brooklyn features 2009' (they've gotten fancy on us!) and added an e-mail:
