I love cooking but don't love how expensive it now is. Tips?!

[SavvyBudgeter1]

I cant be the only one fed up of wasting so much money on buying groceries? We've been feeling the pinch recently and are trying to keep cooking healthily but we're struggling.

I've tried everything from HelloFresh to searching for recipes online but it's either crazy expensive after the promotion is done or I end up having to buy tonnes of stuff that I wont use again.

I've been recommended to sign up to yummly.com and foridge.app. Has anyone tried either? Any other recommendations would be great!

Have you seen meals by Mitch op...he is on insta and has a cookbook too

Thanks for this

I often use cheaper cuts of meat & either pressure-cook or slow-cook them.

We both love offal, which is still incredibly cheap.
I've recently had chicken livers, & lambs' kidneys - both meals were c.£1 for the meat content for 2. (I'm ignoring the unnecessary additions of Marsala, truffle oil, & double cream !)

Treat yourself to a couple of old fashioned cook books - try Eat by Nigel Slater.

Few ingredients, fast food, nothing too complicated or expensive.

It saves a lot of money.

try not to waste anything. With veges so many usable bits are often binned.

chick peas or red lentils bulk so many things.

frozen veges where they work. For example, frozen broccoli to add to soup stops the waste of a fresh one going off.
