Cooking cheap healthy meals

Hi,
my oh and I want to really cut back on our monthly spends, we have a shopping budget of about £50 a week for food, however we do tend to go over that if we need to buy a large item like washing powder. We mainly eat things like chips, pies, pizzas, quiche, frozen breaded chicken and other chicken meals...mainly all with chips or something equally as an unhealthy. We do occasionaly have bolognase and sweet and sour chicken with noodles....but neither of us know how to cook nice meals from scratch.
Could people post there homemade recipes for nice dinners? even if its just your own home made pasta sauce that would be of help!
Thanks all!:j
