About the Book
Suzanne Mulholland, known nationwide as The Batch Lady, built her reputation helping busy families reclaim time in the kitchen through smart batch-cooking. In Cooking on a Budget, she turns her signature method toward one of the biggest pressures facing households today: the rising cost of groceries. This hardcover cookbook is organized around simple, freezable dishes built from everyday store-cupboard ingredients, so home cooks can shop smart, cook in bulk, and stock a freezer full of ready-to-go meals without relying on expensive or hard-to-find items. Each recipe is designed to minimize both time in the kitchen and money spent at the checkout, with clear instructions that suit cooks of every skill level, from complete beginners to seasoned meal-preppers looking for fresh inspiration. Suzanne's approach has been praised for helping households save time, money, and reduce food waste, and this budget-focused edition builds directly on that philosophy with recipes created for tighter grocery budgets. Expect hearty family dinners, freezer-friendly staples, and clever ways to stretch pantry basics across multiple meals, explained in Suzanne's warm, encouraging, no-nonsense style. The book also reflects her growing profile as a Channel 4 personality, bringing her batching philosophy to a wider audience of home cooks who want realistic, achievable solutions rather than complicated recipes. It's a cookbook built for real life: busy mornings, packed schedules, and grocery bills that need to work harder.
