Add more vegetables to meat dishes

If you’re a meat eater, you’re probably aware of how expensive it is to get good quality meat.  When cooked in the right way, meals made from cheaper cuts of lean meat can be just as tasty. Buy lean cuts of beef, chicken and lamb and you can make stews and casseroles that last all week. Adding lots of vegetables to these dishes will make your meat last longer and keep you full, while also providing you with plenty of nutrition. If you don’t already have a slow cooker, it’s a good idea to invest in one – these make stews, hotpots and soups so much easier and they can be cooking throughout the day so all you need to do is prepare it, put it in the slow cooker and tuck in.
