To help me plan in a more cost-effective way I am on the lookout for some budget-friendly recipes as the cost of feeding teenagers is ridiculous and I’m striving to keep our grocery costs as low as I can. Do you have any budget recipes you can share with me?

MONDAY
Homemade Beef Rissoles with potato and vegetables – I love a meat and 3 veg kind of meal!! And I find making my own homemade rissoles are not only tastier but also so much cheaper than store purchased rissoles.

TUESDAY
Chicken Laksa –A healthy, delicious Chicken Laksa soup that not only soothes the throat but can help with the decongestion. This Chicken Laksa has a little kick that takes it a step further helping clear that blocked nose.
