Unfortunately most of my diet isn't healthy because bulk buying cheap sausages, mince and micro-wave meals stave off the hunger a lot better than buying little of the more expensive cut's that are claimed to be better for us.
Less, you do not have to pay the earth for fresh foods......but you do have to spend time in cooking them.
My guess (and it may be wrong, but I am sure you will tell me if I am) is that you opt for these cheap sausages, mince, and microwave meals because you do not like to spend time in the preparation of meals(or perhaps you are lacking in cooking skills)....so you go for the quick option.

It is possible to cook nutritious and healthier food by planning, shopping wisely, and of course, spending a bit of time in the kitchen.
