Nourishing meals on a budget

Anyone got good meal ideas that are both nourishing and cheap?

Costing would be good if possible and where to source the ingredients.

A whole weeks worth would be a good challenge with the ingredients already bought used for other meals.

I'll get my thinking cap on asap. Although its Mums birthday today and DSs FiL is expected to die today.

Such is family life!!

catlover I would say so, but TBH I just bung it in without any measuring. Usually works well.

In the summer I buy peppers, courgettes, celery, garlic,tomatoes from the market and make a big minestrone soup by adding some spaghetti and grated cheese on the top. It makes a very good meal with some crusty bread. I also add some smoked bacon for a bit of extra flavour and some fresh basil leaves.
