Helllpppppp!!! running out of ideas...

Queen Delia, I think. You can just search by ingredients and relevant recipes pop up - here

I would also recommend trying to get the How to Cook series of books (3 of them). She goes through all the basics and then gives some fantastic recipes - everything from traditional to modern. You may get used copies cheap on Amazon.

OK Straight off the top of my head:

Cubed beef
any type of beef casserole - vary by adding red wine, tomatoes or beer (not lager) plus whatever veg you can lay your hands on.
Chilli con carne
cottage pie - for the chilli & cottage pie you could whizz the meat up in a food processor to make smaller chunks.

Minced lamb - don't eat lamb so not much help but:
lamb burgers
lamb kebabs - add mint & roll into sausage shapes on kebab sticks
shepheds pie

Chicken breasts
Mexican fajitas/enchiladas
Chicken curry
Thai green curry - you need a tub of green curry paste (keeps for ages in the fridge) & tin of coconut milk
breadcrumbed - bash thin between 2 pieces of cling film. coat in flour, then beaten egg & finally breadcrumbs. Shallow fry or bake
Cordon bleu - bash thin (as above) lay thumb sized piece of cheese & slice of ham on top & roll up. breadcrumb as above & bake in oven.
Stuffed - cut slit in chicken & stuff with...anything - cheese, onion, garlic, sundried tomato, stuffing & then bake in oven
Chicken tikka - bash some garlic & ginger in a pestle & mortar to a paste. Add dried chilli flakes/powder, turmeric, cumin, garam marsala (basically any cuury type spices you have in cupboard) & some mint. Mix with small tub of natural yoghurt & marinade chicken breasts (whole or cut into chunks) for a couple of hours. Grilling is best.

Here's a cheap receipe I tried at the weekend & have been dying to share ever since! It's kind of like a spicy lasagne. I used tesco value tortilla chips, value sweetcorn & value tomatos, frozen peppers & dried chilli flakes & powder. I made it with (reduced price!) mince but you could easily use the diced steak or any type of mince:

Mexican Casserole :
Chop & fry 2 large onions. Add diced peppers if desired.
Add meat & brown
Add half a tin of finely chopped tomatoes & all the juice, garlic & finely chopped fresh/dried chilli to taste
Allow to simmer until most of the juice has evaporated.
Meanwhile "cream" a tin of sweetcorn in a blender with a very little water to form think sauce consistancy & grate cheese for topping.

Pour half the meat mix into a casserole dish & top with all the creamed sweetcorn. Layer half a pack of tortilla chips over the sweetcorn then top with remaining meat mix & layer remaining tortilla chips. Top with grated cheese & bake in medium oven for around 25 mins until hot through & the cheese bubbles. Serve with rice or garlic bread.

sounds good to me!!! I would maybe add kidney beans to stretch the meat a bit further still (but then I'm a piglet). I've never blitzed sweetcorn to a sauce before (Im not a big fan of it to be honest) but might give it a go if I see a dented tin on the trolley and remember this recipe

I'm sure frozen/fresh sweetcorn would work just the same, you just need to add water a tablespoonful at a time to get it to the right consistancy. If you don't like sweetcorn maybe you could make a pepper sauce using frozen & defrosted peppers or use a tin of re-fried beans?
