Our household is DH, DD (not weaned yet) and I. I want to cut down on my weekly shopping bill which averages out at around £50/week I think. Some weeks its £30, some weeks £60. I think this is because I often buy other things from the supermarket, like baby clothes etc, so not sure how much I actually spend on food.
Anyway, I digress. I'm after menu ideas for meals. My DH is VERY picky, and whilst he is getting better at what he can eat it does limit what I can make (not that I mind at all).
So here are the limitations:
*Not keen on veg - will eat peas, carrots, corn
*Doesn't eat tomato based sauces (can make lasagne but have to make the sauce very meaty rather than tomato-y
*Doesn't like sauces in general in fact, gravy a no-no.
*Doesn't eat spicy foods - no curries or chillies
At the moment, we eat lasagne, cottage pie, chicken fajitas, steak or chicken pie, pork chops, pizza, chicken sweet and sour (just give him very little sauce).
Can anyone suggest cheap, healthy meals to expand our menu planner???
