The Whole Pantry Bundle

Planning dinner is four separate problems: what to cook this week, what to keep on the shelf, how to cook it without a mountain of dishes, and what to do when it is just you. I wrote one cookbook for each, and this bundle puts all four together.

What is in the bundle

Four printable PDFs, 185 pages and 160 recipes, every one with the total cost, the cost per serving and a price on each ingredient line. All prices are estimates at 2025 US grocery prices.

• 8 Weeks of Budget Meal Plans (52 pages): eight weekly plans of five dinners, each with a consolidated shopping list. Every week is under $60 (estimated), from $30.30 to $46.80.
• The Pantry Staples Cookbook (55 pages): a 30 item pantry list and 50 dinners cooked from it, each at $1.12 a serving or less.
• One-Pot Budget Dinners (44 pages): 40 dinners in one pot, from 50 cents to $1.46 a serving.
• Cooking for One on a Budget (34 pages): 30 single-serving dinners with leftovers notes, each between $0.51 and $1.37.

Bought separately they are $14.99, $14.99, $12.99 and $9.99, which is $52.96. The bundle is $29.99.

How the four fit together

Start with the pantry list and stock the shelf. Use the meal plans for the weeks you want zero decisions. Reach for the one-pot book when you are tired. When you are cooking just for yourself, the single-serving book tells you what to do with every leftover half can.

The books share a method: every ingredient line has a price, so if your grocery store is different you can write in your own number and the total follows.

A few dinners across the books

• Spaghetti Frittata (Week 1 of the plans): $0.66 a serving, built from Monday's leftover pasta.
• Lentil Rice Pilaf (Pantry): $0.50 a serving.
• One-Pot Chicken and Rice (One-Pot): $1.18 a serving.
• Bean Quesadilla for One (Cooking for One): $0.75 for the meal.

Why a bundle

Each book solves a different night. The meal plans solve the busy week where you want no decisions. The pantry book solves the night the fridge looks empty. The one-pot book solves the night you are tired. The single-serving book solves the night it is just you. Owning all four means that on any weeknight there is a recipe on your shelf that fits, with a price attached before you start cooking. The files are printable, so you can keep your favorites in a binder and write your own store's prices in the margins.
