Would generic weekly meals help you meal plan?
As many budgeters know, there are certain generic meals that can be endlessly modified, as well as all the wonderful recipes for these generic recipes, they will swallow whatever you have available, help in the weekly fridge clean out and use up all kinds of bits and pieces. I’ve been musing about it for a while and this week I thought that it would be perfectly possible to meal plan around generic meals.

A tin of value tuna stirred through before baking is extra nice.I think this sauce is much nicer than the bought ones, and nearly as quick.
