I think most of the early players (even before myself) just focused on getting all the monsters to level 15, and the XP took care of itself so most didn't bother paying attention. Plus, the game capped at game level 15 or 20 early on, not 30, and this was months before the Unity Tree and its heavily skewed XP haul, so there were no shortcuts to leveling up.

Selling bakeries works (and buying small ones and upgrading to large before you sell gets you slightly more) but requires some effort. I still say make tons of food, then level up your monsters in order to earn more money, then buy more food. By the time you get about half your monsters to Level 15, the XP should take care of itself, and then you'll really be raking in money on a daily basis. I got to level 30 months ago and I still don't have all my monsters at level 15 (mostly because I stopped bothering due to the return).
