I seem to be constantly trying to live as cheap as possible these days to try and get myself in a better financial position. I've been eating a lot of chicken dhansak, which bulks out as much as you like with lentils which are dirt cheap, this recipe: http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/board/showthread.php?thread_id=281 (bulk buy spices from an indian store, will keep you going for ages, whole chicken - roast, strip of meat and boil carcass for stock) Less than a tenner for 4 days food.
Lunches are usually ham and pea soup made with whatever is the cheapest cut of ham / gammon I can get, or flavoured cous cous sachet (cooks in the bowl with a little boiling water) with a little tin of tuna, and a bunch of toasted seeds, total cost about £1.50 and very filling and good.
All about the pulses.
