I need to reduce my weekly food budget to £30. This has to feed me and my 18 year old DD.
DD is vegetarian and I am happy to eat (mostly) veggie food. I am good at planning, not a bad cook and rarely throw food away. Also have a fairly well-stocked larder.
We are not fussy eaters, but prefer that eggs, milk and yoghurt are organic. Can't afford organic cheese I also think it is important to have some form of protein with each meal. We don't really eat much processed food (apart from veggie sausages and quorn).
We have a fantastic local shop which sells a huge range of loose fruit and veg and is only slightly more expensive than the supermarket and I would like to carry on supporting them cadging free over-ripe bananas, tomatoes etc
I should be able to manage on £30 a week (have survived on less in the past) but am struggling, particulary with evening meals.
Would really appreciate any cheap, dinner recipe ideas!
