So you'll know how ruddy expensive Booths is then!!

Ive been watching my weight recently and also expense, so eat a lot of very simple healthy stuff! Such as Stir Frys, Baked Spuds with various fillings, Beans on Toast etc. You can get large bags of Stir Fry veg at places like Asda for as little as 50p which can do for 2 meals. The secret i think is ...depending on whether you like spices or not... to add as much flavour as you can..i love chilli and garlic, again you can get these fresh and cheap and because they are strong flavours you feel like you are eating a lot, even though you arnt! Bottled spicey sauces near there sell by date are also good in stir frys. I've even managed to buy Smoked Salmon very cheap at Asda recently, they sell smoked salmon scraps, pre-packed for only 88p!! Again lots of flavour and really good for you! I would echo another post about Lambs Liver too, very cheap and full of B vitamins, again because i like spicey food, i pan fry it in a little oil or butter along with chopped garlic and chilli...lovely! Supermarket Cheese is pretty cheap usually around £1.50 for own brand 200grm pack, great grated with spuds..on toast..or grilled with an egg on top....oh and theres another...if you buy the cheapest supermarket eggs they are around 88p for 6!!

I don't set the prices . I just drive for them .

soup/stew, add some pasta and lentils and its pretty filling :)
i made fritata the other day, fried up some veg (i had pre boiled potatoes,courgettes,mushrooms, peas) and a bit of ham then mixed it with some eggs in the frying pan, left to cook then grilled the top... bit like an omellette but thicker, was nice :)

Cheese is fine for the cheap meals but remember its pretty much pure saturated fat so aint doing the healthy side of things any good.

Healthy food at a reasonable price try the veggie options - Quorn and Linda McCartney stuff is often on special offer so you can have a meal for about the quid mark. No doubt it doesn't taste as good as real meat but it is ridiculously healthy again high protein low fat low sat fat low salt.

I have been eating stir fry, I like throwing my salmon in it. I won't buy battery farmed eggs because I believe you get quality out of what is put into the animal. I wouldn't buy meat from the supermarket either if it wasn't from a good, British source, but I'd rather buy from the local butcher when I get chance. Otherwise I do without.

The only thing that I eat or drink that I'd consider unethical is Coca-Cola. Everything else tends to be locally sourced. But I want to stretch it out to get the best that I can out of it. Rather than hunting down cheap meals.

I can eat my 70p shepherds pie when I'm on my last £2, but I'd like to be able to avoid that in future by being as efficient as possible with what I actually cook. Like, if I buy a chicken, I'd like to know how to make a soup the next day out of the carcass... for example.

I don't eat processed foods if I can help it. I don't class it as 'healthy' if it's full of crap to keep it all stuck together either.

Did you watch that episode of wife swap with the hunter husband who did actually bring home roadkill to eat?

We have rabbits running around campus and a gunsmith in town. How easy do you reckon I could get a licence?

And how quick do you reckon I'd get caught shooting rabbits on campus :p

Re: What is the cheapest, healthy recipe you know of?
 

Ah so by healthy you don't mean nutritionally sound.

Re: What is the cheapest, healthy recipe you know of?
 

eh? that doesnt make sense... processed food is nutritionally sound?

Onion Soup!!

I know the gunsmiths shop . I come past it daily .

Re: What is the cheapest, healthy recipe you know of?
 

I don't want to be eating stuff out of a packet that I just have to throw into the oven.

I want fresh ingredients. Put into a home cooked meal. Supporting local farmers and industry.

I'm struggling to see what is so difficult about this concept.

It doesn't matter now anyway. I'll look at the recipes in the community section and ask the butcher.

guns excite you do they ? :eek:

I really liked him! I remember thinking to myself that I want a life just like that, husband included. Fantastic.
