Cheap & Nutritional – Welcome!

Hello, and thank you for clicking on this post.

I am astounded that here in the UK people are struggling to simply feed themselves, we are supposed to be a rich nation, and yet more and more of us are having to rely on food banks.

Without going into a frantic tirade on politics, I’ll just state that this is NOT fair, it shouldn’t be this way!

Further more, we are getting more obese as a nation, and less nourished with greater risk of malnutrition. It costs money to eat healthily, and yet the stuff on special offers in shops are the highly processed stuff.

When we have little money our first and foremost thought is to make sure those we love have food in their tummies, that they aren’t hungry.

With this in mind, I decided I would start to do some simple recipes using cheaper ingredients. Ideally I want to create recipes around the £1.50 per person mark, which would include at least 2 portions of fruit and veg, and would be low in calories. These recipes are adult portions, so adjustments can be made for child size portions.

I shall be using Tesco and sometimes Sainsbury for my costings, so I assume more saving can be made by shopping at shops such as Lidl and Aldi.

I aim to be loading up a new recipe every couple of weeks, and will list them in this blog post. Each recipe blog post will also have a link to this page.

I would love to be of some help to anyone who needs it, so if you or anyone you know could do with this information, please do share it anyway you can. I don’t care if it’s printed out, this blog is not about the amount of likes it receives, it’s just about helping.

Thank you 🙂
