Hi there...

Does anyone have any recipes for dinners i can make on a really tight budget... i'd appreciate any help!!

Thanks alot... your all :A

tiff

Mixed bean chilli

1 can value sweetcorn
1 can value tinned tomatoes
1 can value baked beans
1 can value kidney beans
1 cup tomato ketchup
1 can chick peas
1 onion
1 clove garlic
0.5 cup honey
3 tsp chill powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper

You can add chopped peppers if you like or leave it as it is. Just throw the lot in a slow cooker (I've always used slow cooker but you could use a saucepan on top of the cooker)


Sausage casserole

1 packet thick sausages
1 tin value tomatoes
1 tin value beans
dash worcestershire sauce
green and red pepper chopped

Brown the sausages and soften the peppers first. Then throw all the other ingredients in the pan and cook for 20 mins or so.

Dhal

1 cup red lentils (any would do)
1.5 tbsp oil
1 onion
3 cloves garlic finely chopped
1 tsp gingerroot finely chopped

salt
(all spices below I added)
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp corriander
1/2 tsp cayenne (or to taste)
1/2 tsp garam marsala

Wash and drain lentils thoroughly
Fry garlic, ginger and onion in oil until onion is soft
add tumeric and stir
add lentils and fry for 2 mins
add water and simmer covered for 15 mins
add salt to taste and cook until the consistency is like porridge.
