Cheap healthy eating

Meals you prepare yourself can cost a lot less than buying meals ready-made in a shop or restaurant.

People often feel there’s not enough time to cook – but you can prepare some meals just as quickly as heating up a TV dinner, or popping out for a takeaway!

Most of the recipes in these links are cheap, easy and quick to prepare. Why not save even more time and money by cooking double, and freezing the leftovers for a later date?
