yeah we do and i love stews/casseroles in it and the kids love how tender the meat are veges are BUT every time i make one hubby finds something in it he doesn't like lol like last night he didn't like the sauce yet he flippen picked it! it was a maggi rich beef cass one.

yeah i love soups :) but your right he does like meat or will eat 6 bits of toast after lol

thanks for your advice we actually had chicken tenderloins crumbed and roasted tonight but instead of chips had veges (DD must have veges or wont eat lol and with youngest he loves feeding himself veges) ]]> Wed, 08 Jul 2009 21:29:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27375&PID=718856&title=healthy-cheap-dinner-meal-ideas#718856 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27375&PID=718363&title=healthy-cheap-dinner-meal-ideas#718363 Author: xLUCKYx

Ooh that sounds yumo!

Other real cheap meals are soups and so so yummy in winter although your DH might want something more if he is a meat man as mine is. I usually just make sure we have some bacon and eggs in the house and if he isn't happy he can cook a second course :)

Casseroles and stews are good too ;-) Do you have a slow cooker?]]> Wed, 08 Jul 2009 12:55:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27375&PID=718363&title=healthy-cheap-dinner-meal-ideas#718363 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27375&PID=718359&title=healthy-cheap-dinner-meal-ideas#718359 Author: lizzle

I meal plan, then put my ingredients in to foodtown online to work out how much everything is - then go shopping at pak n save. So far, I saved $50 over the regular grocery budget this week.]]> Wed, 08 Jul 2009 12:54:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27375&PID=718359&title=healthy-cheap-dinner-meal-ideas#718359 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27375&PID=718345&title=healthy-cheap-dinner-meal-ideas#718345 Author: AandCsmum

A nice easy one in our household. It looks expensive cause of the chicken but when you compare it to proper fish n chips it is CHEAP.

Chicken breasts, say 2? Depending on how big an eater DH is & how old DD is. Chop into square/nuggets dust in flour & plain salt (freshly ground rock salt is yum) & fry in about 2 Tb of oil.

Cook some Pam chips as per packet. Pams are cheap & preservative/additive free

Really yummy & really filling ]]> Wed, 08 Jul 2009 12:37:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27375&PID=718345&title=healthy-cheap-dinner-meal-ideas#718345 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27375&PID=718286&title=healthy-cheap-dinner-meal-ideas#718286 Author: xLUCKYx

My fave meal is Thai Beef Salad. I make a salad using mesculun, cucumber, carrot, capsicum, avocado and a chopped chilli. I use lemon or lime juice and balsamic dressing and slice rump steak over the top - and sprinkle generously with corriander. When I have this, DP has a steak, potato and small salad.

There are heaps of things I like that he doesn't so we improvise.

Wills ee if I can think of some more ideas.....]]> Wed, 08 Jul 2009 10:51:17 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27375&PID=718286&title=healthy-cheap-dinner-meal-ideas#718286 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27375&PID=718182&title=healthy-cheap-dinner-meal-ideas#718182 Author: charlotteandhuntersmummy
