Could you get by with just 7 dollars a day for food? Could your family of 4 get by on 28 dollars a day? United Way’s Hunger Challenge is asking folks to test that idea and see how they’d feel and what life would be like if they had to be so frugal.
I’m going to list some of their recipes, but you can find ideas over at their United Way Hunger Challenge website.
