# A Girl Called Jack by Jack Monroe (Paperback)

Jack is a cash-strapped single mom living in Southend. When she found herself with a shopping budget of just £10 a week to feed herself and her young son, she addressed the situation with immense resourcefulness, creativity, and by embracing her local supermarket's "basics" range. She created recipe after recipe of delicious, simple, and upbeat meals that were outrageously cheap. Learn with Jack Monroe's _A Girl Called Jack_ how to save money on your weekly shop whilst being less wasteful and creating inexpensive, tasty food. Recipes include Vegetable Masala Curry for 30p a portion, Pasta alla Genovese for 19p a portion, Fig, Rosemary and Lemon Bread for 26p, and a Jam Sponge reminiscent of school days for 23p a portion.
