Any good recipes for the new girl in town~?

swissbrie

Hi there I'm.. looking to eventually lose about 100lbs over the course of the next year-year and a half, because that's where my "healthy" weight is for my body type.
My problem is... getting my father to buy healthy foods.
In about a month or so, when I get my own job, it won't be an issue buying food and cooking for myself.. but my family eats like absolute CRAP and I really wish they'd eat better. (I'm talking....dollar store food, just because it's cheap and edible)
...but like I mentioned, my dad is cheap.

SO I was wondering, does anyone know where to find CHEAP (or at least affordable, in bulk?) recipes that I can introduce to my father to change his RIDICULOUSLY bad eating ways? (Low-cal isn't the biggest priority, because I have trouble in-taking enough calories as it is, but it would be nice because my family is all overweight somehow)

Any entrees, snacks, breakfast foods, drinks...anything is helpful. c:
Thanks so much!
