I'm glad you mentioned that Asda is not cheaper than Tesco.. I've always said that for years and people always argued with me.. great video and great ideas

[Paperbird]

One of my own favorites is canned tomatoes (or fresh) with garlic, onions, thyme and a can of chickpeas. Its great on pasta or with rice or potatoes..

[missk]

This is amazing, please do more of these videos. I like how you showed us how to make one of the recipes. I definitely want and need to reduce my food shopping spending, All the best to you.

My favorite low cost recipe (USA) is Lentils & Brown Rice. It can feed 4 for about $1.50 USD including carrots. Ingredients: 3 cups broth (chicken or vegetable), 3/4 cups green lentils, 1/2 brown rice, 1/2 yellow onion-chopped, 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning, 1teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon pepper; combine all ingredients in a 2 quart bowl and cover with lid; bake for 1 hour + 10 minutes in a 300 degree oven*. Can be eaten like this, but I like to add grated cheddar cheese (about 1 cup or 4 ounces) and cook for about 20 more mins until cheese is melted. I serve with cooked carrots, but you choose the vegetable to your taste and budget.

I do not know the equivalents in metric, sorry. *this can also be cooked in a slow cooker/crockpot. American broth usually has plenty of salt and fat. The cheese adds fat. Salt to taste.

What a brilliant video loved it thank you keep doing more please x

[Yvonneb_]

Great video. I loved it when you showed the recipe. Years ago I trained to be a cordon bleu cook, well I nearly trained I was in an abusive relationship and he used to hit me in the head. It gave me lots of headaches so I had to stop the training. But I did learn to make chicken chasseur at college. I will have to make that for my family. Thanx for the idea xx I shop asda but only cos my son works there so I get a discount lol. Xx

[clairechristy]

Brilliant video again. I love watching these Samantha xx

[kazpike]

Is the red lion the one that used to be in aspull?

[Kenderchild]

Your video was very calm. I enjoyed it.

[lyndarendell]

Great thank you Where can I get the grocery list and weekly meal plan please

[zoewhyte]

I think this is really good. Hopefully people only need these kind of budgets short term and can add to it ect xx

[tummymummy]

What little extras did you use from your stock cupboard to make the recipes please. I counted olive oil and basil for the pasta and stock cubes for the chicken chasseur....

[jamescarr]

can't wait to see the steaks and the chicken, roast beef, bacon sausage, pork, on that shopping list for under £10 for a week

[paularoberts]

You are amazing
I was wondering what I could do with my reduced mushrooms today and its definitely garlic mushrooms on toast
Thank you
Take care xx❤️❤️

[ireneconnor]

I love this type of video. I tried your pasta dish yummy.. I agree Tesco is cheaper and better fresh stuff than Asda.

[stellamurphy]

I quite often do pasta with a tin of chopped tomatoes (sprinkle of dried oregano and basil) and call it pasta Italiano sauce, cheap and kids love it. Xx

[DeidresBudgetingJourney]

The spaghetti looked delicious. Even with exchange rate the prices you listed are still way cheaper than where I live in Canada. 💕

Not really relevant to the content but can't help but say that I'm so jealous of your handwriting 😊

[budgetsarainyday]

Thank you for the ideas. My only concern is that on some of the days, it’s under 1000 calories of food - which isn’t healthy for most adults.

[paulamccarthy]

You should try Aldi or Lidl :) Tesco is pretty expensive
