Here's a quick example of a weeks shopping for two adults on a budget.
Our budget for a weekly shop is a maximum of £25. If we can manage to do it for less...even better!

We already had some of the items we needed. Basics like herbs, curry powders, stock cubes, potatoes, onions, porridge, rice etc are always handy to have in the house. With our basics and the items we bought "on the shop" we managed to make a week worth of dinners, lunches and breakfasts.
Breakfast every week is usually toast with low sugar jam, a slice of ham or marmite or porridge with low sugar jam or fruit.
Lunch every week tends to be jacket potatoes (either sweet potatoes or normal potatoes) with different healthy fillings like mixed vegetables or baked beans.
Dinners this week were:
Liver and bacon.
Cheesy leeks.
The low fat ww2 curry.
Fish cakes and chips with peas.
Sausages and mash with veg.
Leek and potato soup.
Stir fried Leek, bacon and potatoes with mixed veg.

Oh and plenty of Tea or coffee with milk! Remember if you want a good night's sleep it's better to have decaff from 12pm onwards!
(Please ignore the fish food! That's for our tropical fish, not the tinned mackerel!)
