As per title really, and following on from the 'feed your family for a fiver' line of thought, has anyone got any recipe recommendations for a half decent dinner for two for under £2.50?
This evening I bought a pack of those Swedish Kitchen meatballs in Sainsburys for £1.10 (half price), did up a batch of spagetti (20p), spooned in half a jar of red pesto (45p), the remains of the oil from a jar of sundried tomatoes(about 4 spoons), stir, throw in the ovened meatballs and grate some strong cheddar cheese (40p maybe) over the top. Superb, and under £2.50 worth of ingredients to fill and satisfy two people cooked in 10 minutes.
