Rosery Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 For a month, what meals and more importantly what foods will suffice?I have a budget of £80. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lemons Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Massive bag of rice.A selection of sauces.Just do like massive spag bol and then freeze portions of it.Anything like that - stews etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest R9 Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Staple foods, Rice, Pasta, Chicken, Potatoes.Buy these in large quantities, they are all cheap and lots of different things can be done with them.Obviously you can choose to supplement with spices, peas, sauce etc.For just price-wise, go to Iceland, they have millions of £1 meal deals on offer. Asda is good too.Milk is also very good for sustenance, organic though.Avoid foods high in saturated fats and lots of sugar, i.e. hotdogs, haribo.More improtantly - never pay for water.

djbmc Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 How much do people spend a month on food?Only people who live on their own need answer£50 a week.If ur willing to cook, buying some spices and tins of tomatoes u can make sauces for pretty much anything, big bag of dried pasta, sum veg and that - make bare sauces, freeze them, and then use when desired.

VENOM Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 depends on how well u want to eat. u can eat budget and still eat healthy or u can screw health and invest in cancer ridden GM foods in a can/box for a paaandiceland is ur friend for that.or to cook ur own food u can buy stuff like turkey breasts (cheaper than beef,lamb and chicken)packet noodles and stir fry veg packets. lots of rice and pasta for cheapweetabix/oats for breakfast, saver brand eggs. baked beans and bread.the wont be much variety but you'll survive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
