Very cheap meals for one!

[Scarlett]

I am making a bet with my friend that i can make a tenner last longer than him, regarding spending money on dinners. Any ideas on what very cheap meals I can make - suitable for one person and preferably one portion, no repetition or left overs.
Thanks!

Buenchico- thanks for those! Only thing is, a rather lot of mince. The idea would be to have varied food each night, if possible! :)

Are you allowed to buy a big bag of something (say frozen chicken) but only have to cost in the amount you use during the challenge? For example, if a bag of frozen chicken costs £4 but you use only 1 or the 8 portions do you only have to factor in 50p? Only asking because if you wanted a single portion of chicken it would be a lot more expensive.

Sugar sandwich - one of my favourites (after a nice condensed milk sandwich).

After school we only got jam sandwiches & milk before bed......starved, we were !
