Low carb diet on a budget?

Thanks for this thread OP. I have recently turned to low carb. Not fanantically but cutting out bread pasta biscuits etc. (and it's working!)
I make my own yoghurt and have it for breakfast every day with a spoonful of oatmeal and seeds. I reckon that it costs about 75p to produce a tub of about 900g (59p for a litre of milk and the rest for a couple of tablespoons of the last batch, plus the mixed seeds and oatmeal) a lot cheaper than the bought versions.
I also make batches of soup from whatever veg I have available, including bits from the bottom of the salad drawer and washed peelings. Frozen in portions they make an excellent filler for lunch.
Just a learner so hoping that more ideas will be added.
Thanks again OP. Pink, you also found another thread that I'd missed, will take a look now...
The beautiful thing about learning is nobody can take it away from you.
Thanks to everyone who contributes to this wonderful forum. I'm very grateful for the guidance and friendliness that I always receive from you.

Please and Thank You are the magic words;)0
