Meal Planning Help Please!

Hi all!
For the next three weeks I'm on a tight budget due to paying off a credit card (whoop!)
I have approximately £20 a week to spend on all food, plus some food already in my cupboard and fridge. I'd be grateful of some help in sticking to this either with some meal plan ideas, or general tips on what to buy to add to what I already have in my cupboard. I'm a veggie, so don't need to worry about buying meat, and need lunches that I can take to work. I generally shop in Aldi
In my cupboard already there is:
500g lentils
Tin of mixed beans
Tin of baked beans
Tin of tomatoes
Passata
Half a pack of spaghetti
Box of crackers
Loads of herbs and spices, plenty of oil etc, flour, sugar etc.
Freezer
Half a loaf of bread
2 naan breads
Fridge
Butternut squash (possibly might be off, but maybe saveable!!)
Tonnes of onions
Pack of tomatoes (getting a bit squishy
Salad leaves
A small amount of broccoli
Butter/milk
2 yoghurts
Any help, comments or tips appreciated
Thank you!!
