Forward Planning

2pm: Breakfast and lunch today was the same as yesterday, with the exception of a piece of brownie cake. It’s truly the best thing I’ve ever made and should last me all week. Yay!

Must plan ahead a few meals for maximum savings. Tonight I intend to cook a sausage caserole (thanks to MaliA for the suggestion) which should last two or three days. I don’t actually have a caserole dish, so I’ll be popping to the supermarket tonight for that and possibly a couple of ingredients.

Chilli is another suggestion I’ve had quite often, so I think I might cook up a big batch of that tomorrow and freeze it. Mmmmm, chilli.

8pm: Sausage Casserole is cooked!

Another couple of sliced potatoes, all of my sausages, an onion and various seasonings. Took a little while to prepare but it tastes pretty good and there’s enough here for at least 3, if not 4 hearty portions. Anything I don’t eat tonight will be bagged and frozen for another day. Cost: No more than about £4. Result!

Must confess I spent £2.75 in Sainsburys today on a couple of seasonings, some more chopped tomatos, kidney beans, and tomato puree which will be going in tomorrow’s chille :) Total spent so far: £38.01
