If You Fail To Prepare, You Prepare to Fail

Ironing is Done...Shopping List is made...Checked all my Prices on the Asda and Sainsbury's Apps and I'm shocked that only 5 things were cheaper at Asda! I am not going until 230 ish so I can pick up all the Yellow Sticker Bargains, sharpened elbows at the ready! X

I'm glad you enjoyed your treat

You sound very organised with your shopping. I tend just to go wherever I fancy that day haha.

Welcome Sweetie We are a bunch of Chatterboxes in this Diary! Stir-Fry was AMAZING, very flavoursome and I have to say I was quite impressed with the 'Fake Lamb' ! X



Was that the Stir-Fry Sweetie? X




Welcome Sweetie x

Yes was it that the one you made when your friend came over.x

OMG I couldn't do that, I'd probably have heart failure! X

In that case it was a very Cheats Meal!

It was an Offer in Sainburys, Any Stir-Fry (I got the Mushroom one as I knew everything in it was 0pp), Fresh Egg or Rice Noodles (I got Rice ones as Much less PP than Egg ones) and Any Fresh Sauce (I got Blackbean as I like the flavour of that one) for only £3! Then I got the 'Lamb' Strips as they were reduced to £1.25, only used half a pack though so total cost was £3.625 for two people, bargain! You preheat the pan (i have a Jamie Oliver one which doesn't require Oil), cook the 'Strips' first for 5mins, then add the Veg for another 5mins and then add the Noodles and Sauce for another 5mins. X

That sounds gorgeous. Going to give that ago. The thort of you flappin round the supermarket without a list has set me off with the giggles.x

Here's what lunch on shopping day looks like...




It's a sort of curry made me with Red Onion, Carrot and Yellow Pepper and of course spices! I grated a Babybel Light on top for Protein and served it with 114g of Mushy Peas which were left from Friday, I know that Peas are a vegetable but in this case I used them as a Carb.

Total 'Cost' of the Meal was 3pp and it used up the odds and sods in my fridge before I go shopping! Also got a last Apple and last Kiwi to eat afterwards. X

I think it comes from being tight and never wanting to buy something until what I have is used up! I also have to make sure I have Protein and Carbs and Veg in each meal because as a Veggie I want to make sure my diet is balanced. X PS-You're so sweet, ,most people would probably have been like where's the rice or naan lol x
