Cheap meals that go far?

[cheeseloversdelight]

We've been really trying to reduce our monthly food costs and we are doing quite well I think. We were spending around £800 pm inclusive of pet food, cleaning materials and food. I'm down to around £100 pw for 3 adults and one child.

I have been using a meal plan and only buying what's on the shopping list for the plan on a weekly I would still like to reduce this cost further if possible.

We still have a roast every Sunday and then I include a meal I cook that last multiple nights (eg bolognese big batch, night 1: with pasta, night 2 with different type pasta, night 3 it turns into chilli with jacket).

Can anyone recommend meals I can cook that will last for 3 (or more) consecutive nights please that are healthy, don't cost a fortune with minimal processed ingredients? Large stews etc? I add lentils and lots of mushrooms and veg to the bolognese so it goes a lot further. We aren't massive meat eaters so can get away with smaller amounts of meat with veg etc to bulk up.
I don't really want to start cooking loads of food and freezing if I can help it.

Thanks in advance!

Do you bulk buy ingredients like rice, pasta, potatoes?

Tilda long grain £1 a kilo in Iceland or home bargains.
Pasta, smart price all the way here. Dh would have told me if he didn’t like it in no uncertain terms.
Potatoes from farm shops if you’ve got one or Morrison’s do big sacks half price sometimes. If you register it as a favourite on mysupermarket.co.uk they email you when it’s on offer.

Poundland for brand name staples if your brand loyal.

Tuna pasta bake

Make two different casserole and freeze half of them . Make them into different dishes by adding different toppings. Mash, pastry, sliced potatoes or dumplings
Pulled chicken can be used as it is with chip /rice or added to wraps and salad
