Description
How the heck do you cook in this country?
This was a problem from the time we landed. As I stood at the store converting colones to dollars I quickly became overwhelmed after looking at a small jar of peanut butter and realizing it was going to cost me $6.24 I turned around and looked at the bag of Doritos that I was going to put with the PB&J sandwiches and it took everything not to cry in the middle of the store. My conversion calculator displayed the price of the 7oz bag to be $4.13. I quickly realized that I was going to go broke just trying to feed my family.
That feeling did not stop as I made my way through the rest of the store converting the price on the foods. From strange fruit to extremely high prices on the food we were accustomed to in the US, Cooking in Costa Rica was going to prove to be a challenge. That night I sat down with my husband Steve talking about what we were going to do. We reminded each other that this was an adventure and it was going to take some work to figure it out, but the Page family was up to the challenge.
If you're struggling, you are not alone! We had a huge outpouring from people having the same problems. But there is hope. Cut The Crap has once again come to the rescue. We have taken what we learned and put it in an Internation Bestselling book.<br><br>We set out to learn how to cook in Costa Rica and we worked with the locals to learn how they cooked cheap. Since our goal was to get healthier while living in Costa Rica, we worked with the local doctors to learn how to cook healthy.
What we learned through this process was life-changing! Not only did we find ways to cook cheap, but we also found that changing the ways we were eating and cooking had tremendous effects on our physical lives as well. In addition to the whole family losing weight, our cholesterol and blood pressure went down, and our energy level improved.
