Pro tip save the peels of carrots and potatoes along with the outer layer of onions. Boil them with any seasonings you got and bam you got a veggie broth.

Try subbing brown lentils in place of the beef mince. A bag costs next to nothing, can be used in loads of meals over the week and wont go off. Lentils go for miles when you need a meat replacement and full of protein too as well as fibre. Meat is so expensive and would have used a fair bit of your budget.

Do you want to talk or do you want to play music? I had to abandon as I have a sensory processing issue and you can't decide what kind of video you want to make.

ooh forgot to add in the video that i allowed myself salt, pepper and oil since they’re staples in everyone’s houses! hope you enjoy 😌

@sippinlean277

Please turn to Jesus he loves you so much and died on the cross for you and your family and friends ❤❤❤❤

what the- how did you get all of that for £9.94 🤕 just the bread, meat, sauce, and potatoes would be like $10 or $11 in the us 😭😭😭

@maidsua4208 3 года назад

Wow! There was a lot of food for £ 10! Had I had so much varied food as a student I would have felt rich!

Watching this now, think you felt unwell from sugar rush and withdrawal. So much sugar in our diet it’s like a drug. It’s the cause of your craving something sweet. I’m not a health foodie or anything but a type 2 diabetic. Withdrawal from sugary food can make you feel unwell until you kind of get used to it. A week or fortnight would see to it. It’s horrible how much sugar is in processed food. So making your own stews and soups is a great achievement in your budget. You can get so many more meals when you start them from scratch.well done is what I’m meaning to say

This is such a good challenge to do - especially helpful if you're a uni student 😂 I'd love to see you do a video about your 1 month Insta detox or something similar ❤️

This was great. The chips are more nutritious if you keep the skins on, making skin-on fries or potato wedges. Even less work too- no peeling. :)

@belbe417 3 года назад

I think you got a bit stuck in a rut on dinner.

@kimdesilva3569

Congratulations! You did really well. I'm amazed at how much food you got. To vary the evening meal slightly, you could have had jacket potato instead of rice sometimes. To feel less hungry, you could grate the carrot for salad for lunch and dinner. For some reason, salad fills you up more. Spinach leaves are cheap too. You can grate a tiny bit of onion to jazz it up.

With your porridge use water instead of milk. If you leave it in the water soaking over night it ends up creamy in consistency anyway. Add a teaspoon of you Peanut butter for an extra crunch. With water the porridge it will get into your system quicker for a extra energy in the morning

I love these challenges. I'm sure I could do it. Finding a way to use the same ingredients to make different dishes would help so much with the food fatigue. The food looked really good!

@mezriasat 2 года назад

I love this video! I'd totally try this but maybe I'd only use 1/2 the mince for the chilli and make a shepards pie with the rest so I can have different flavours through the week x

@Biffab223 2 года назад

Really good video. If your beans are liquidy I find giving them 10 mins on a low hob to thicken the sauce works for me.

@ConstantiaVerted 2 года назад

You could get some sugar fairly cheaply for a bit of sweetness in your baking (or I use Canderel.) There also maybe wasn't much fat in most of the foods, which could be part of why you were craving something nice and so appreciating your chips. :)

@lauraclark1575 Год назад

Wow! Interesting! I’d love to see you easy for £15 a week and try some different things. I think £15 could be really sustainable. You could get some biscuits and maybe cheese or something to jazz up your beans on toast lol❤
