0:38She's the founder of BudgetBites.com, a recipe website for folks with small budgets.

0:44She studied nutritional science in college and she learned this costing method in her classes.

0:49So it's a technique that you will find a lot in food service operations like restaurants and cafeterias.

0:55She says you figure out the price of that carrot, add it to the cost of all the other ingredients in the recipe, and then divide it by the number of servings so you know how much each of your meals is costing.
