    When you are making mash to go with your chop add some spinach, its stupidly good for you, dirt cheap if you buy the frozen stuff and adds good flavour to the mash.

    veg in a stir fry? you can get veg you can microwave too.. obviously its more expensive than buying it and cooking it yourself, but if you're lazy its easy!

    one glass of orange juice counts as a portion. frozen veg is quick and easy too. salad in sandwiches, soup counts sometimes too, as do baked beans.

    frozen veg not quite got the same nutrients as fresh though has it?

    Seeing as nicebutdim23 started this thread for me, I'll print some of these recipes out and try them out over the next few days. I'm not looking forward to it, but I suppose I have to start somewhere.

    Must admit some of the stuff here sounds absolutely lovely, though.

    i made the best noodles ever when i got home from work yesterday and was starving

    you need 1 packed of tesco value mild curry supernoodles (8p). cook noodles, drain and mix with seasoning (provided), grated cheese, small spoonful of mayo and lots of black pepper. mix until everything is melted together. yummy cheesy creamy noodles! eat sandwiched between bread and butter if you're more hungry

    for about 10p a serving its much cheaper than buying takeaway after the pub and the noodles only take 3 mins to cook!

    oh also if you're runnin low on money the noodles are good to use with a stirfry instead of the expensive chinese ones, just throw away the seasoning and add some soy sauce
    iv just tried that - it was lush ( had chicken flvour ones tho)

    try getting some smash, and some pasta, and some sauce of choice

    and mix them all up, tis great and filling

    smash and pasta?!

    mash and pasta would be bad enough.

    sorry, had to bump this up because i just made the best meal :)

    left over cooked chicken (you could use beef/pork/no meat at all)
    pasta
    frozen mixed veg
    patassa (the tomato stuff in a jar that costs about 50p i cant remember what its called - its not pasta sauce just mushed tomatos)
    2 stock cubes
    black pepper/ chilli powder/what ever you have lying about

    get a lasagne dish
    put pasta and the mixed veg in so that it coveres the base, about 3/4 pasta 1/4 veg
    mix the 2 stock cubes with a pint 1/4 of boiling water and poar in the dish,
    add about 1/4 of a pint of patassa to the bowl,
    add left over chicken/ beef / whatever
    add chilli powder, pepper, any other herbs and stuff you have,
    stir it all up
    put in the oven for about an hour stiring occasionaly
    if it gets dry add a bit more water until all the pasta is soft.

    it makes about 3/4 meals
