Smart Price Branflakes are lovely! Much better than Kelloggs IMHO- crunchier, more texture, less refined and 70p a box. What's not to like?!

Agreed - absolutely foul!

Malt loaf good
Crunchy peanut butter - yum! (when you can get it)
Sardines in tomato sauce - my cat loves it
Tortilla chips - nicer than doritos
F & V - all fine
Toilet rolls - rubbish
Chocolate digestive bars - gorgeous

Oh and the kids far prefer the creme caramels (by the yoghurts) to the more expensive ones
jaffa cakes are ok too

Peanut butter is delish
Marmalade is perfectly acceptable - not as good as Frank Coopers but at 27p who cares!
Lemon Curd is ok - put it in sandwich cakes/butterfly cakes.
SmartPrice Spreadable is a gorgeous 'buttery' spread for 84p.
Pickled Onions
Sandwich Pickle
Red Cabbage - OH has this.
Shrink-wrapped beetroot - I can't eat the pickled stuff.
Not keen on the bread BUT it's ok for the dgk's for toast with jam on - or for eggy-bread with tomato ketchup/jam.
Yoghurts
Bacon pieces
tuna
Chilli sauce jars
Curry sauce jars
Kidney Beans
Sweetcorn
Dried Mixed Herbs
Chocolate biscuits (penguin type etc)
plastic lidded boxes for storage
round paper lampshades (£1.49 each for 2 medium sized ones for my landing!)
Bio soap powder
Concentrated fabric conditioner
Toilet Cleaner
Liquid Cleaner
Cream Cleaner
dish cloths
j-cloths
shower gel
toilet soap
white handtowels (used in downstairs loo)
toilet brushes

I've even got 2 sets of the bedding and it's perfectly OK for my king-sized duvet!


Oh boy are my kitchen cupboards colour co-ordinated!

I regularly do this for my lunchbox at work during the week, using all ASDA SmartPrice products (even the pepper). It's very filling.

PASTA & COTTAGE CHEESE FLAN

Makes about 0.75L

INGREDIENTS

1 packet of pasta in sauce
300ml of water
150ml of milk
15g of butter or margarine
1 egg
200g tub of cottage cheese
Ground pepper to taste

METHOD

Make up the pasta in sauce, according to the instructions on the packet.

Break the eggs into a bowl and pick out any bits of shell. Mix up the eggs. Add the cottage cheese. Mix up again. Season with the pepper.

Put the pasta and sauce into a flat ovenproof dish. Level off the surface. Leave to cool until the sauce has thickened. Put the egg and cottage cheese mixture on top. Spread to cover the pasta.

Cook in a preheated oven at 180°C, 350°F, gas mark 4 for 20 to 30 minutes until golden on top.

ADDITIONS & ALTERNATIVES

If you substitute the milk with an equal quantity of water and omit the butter, this is evidently "Slimming World sin free". Put a sliced tomato on top.

We have tried

kidney beans - fine
tomatoes - fine, though the juice is a bit thin
tinned sweetcorn - fine
fresh fruit & veg - fine
lasagne sheets - fine

haven't tried anything else - beans I usually go with what's on offer, at the moment it's HP 4 for a £1

Kitchen rolls, toilet rolls and soap powder I normally buy in bulk at Costco a couple of times a year - I don't even know how much these are in the shops now. I'm not actually sure if this saves any money in the long run - but it keeps the weekly bill down.

I've tried a most of theings that have been mentioned and like them all!

We all use sp stuffing - fine
fruit and fibre - fine
fresh fruit - fine

Im not keen on sp squash though!
