I need a hugeeeee favor

Hello, well recently my money has been cut down a lot to where I can only spend 30 pounds a week on food shopping, I need healthy but cheap food.

Could all you bargain hunters out there please could you list your grocery lists!

Okay. I spend about £45 per fortnight, but I only buy for me.

I get:

- organic veg box - 7 varieties for £9, the basis of all my meals
- 2x loaf Vogels oat and wholemeal bread
- 2x bag bagels
- 1lb cheddar
- 270g peanut butter
- 10x small kiddies apples
- cheese strings (a pack of 12 lasts me over 2 weeks)
- tinned beans - cannellini, butterbeans, flageleot
- red lentils
- white potatoes if not in my veg box
- rice cakes
- organic eggs
- houmous
- fromage frais
- granola bars

and occasionally have to buy things like curry paste, pesto etc. I eat a lot of veggie soups and stews. I get mostly organic so you could cut the cost down there.

I look to the world's peasant foods are delicious, nutritious and cheap:

* dried lentils and beans, things in the cabbage family, pasta, rice, potatoes, carrots & other root veggies

*meat in small quantities (think curries and stir-fries where they're accompanied by loads of veggies) -- and cheaper cuts cooked long and slow to tenderize
