This book is 16 years old, so the prices for vegetables are about half of what they are now. However, the healthy vegetable saving recipes are still relevant. Even if vegetables are expensive, using them up is a way to protect your budget. I've flipped through it many times, so there are minor scratches and folds. Please understand this before purchasing. #SavingRecipes #Vegetables #UseItAllUp #SideDishes #OhayoOkusan #izumimirun #IzumiShoji
