Evening meal ideas for 10 pp and under??

[missdetermination]

I am on week 2 and have put a 1lb on....I haven't used all my weeklies but with the bank holiday too I did have more alcohol. SO I looked back at my weekly menu and can see I use anything from 14pp upwards on my evening meal.

I need some meal ideas to get this lower as I am fine during the day.....oh typical meals for last/this week....I know I use a lot of mince but its fairly cheap

Fajitas, spaghetti bolognaise, chilli and jacket potato, steak and home made chips, home made burgers and salad, chicken roast

Hi,

I was in the same boat, so i started using Quorn mince instead. Hated the taste at first, but got used to it.
I add different spices and herbs and lots of veg. my plate is ever so full

I find stir fry a good low in point recipe as well. Fish with new potatoes and veg is a good one - either breaded fish or the boil in bag type fish you can get (there's a really nice salmon in sweet chilli we have a lot) - or you can have mashed cauliflower, or carrot and swede mash - all of which are point free ...
