Let’s face it, times are tough. For a city gal like me, simplifying my budget sometimes means giving up certain things to get by in this uncertain economy, and it can be disheartening. But food blogger Kimberly Morales, and woman behind Poor Girl Eats Well, has taught me how to eat well even on a strict budget.

With her simple to follow instructions and her varied and eclectic range of recipes, Morales has come up with some amazing meals to stretch out that teeny, tiny budget. From toasted cumin chicken with cashews (a recipe that feeds 4 for $12!) to delicious berry-chevre cheesecake parfait shots (less than $.80 a piece), this poor girl doth eat well.

So, you might be living pay check to pay check, but you’ll be eating like a queen. Let them eat cake, I say! Let them eat cake.
