Today I'm going to share with you my healthy homemade slow cooker tomato sauce recipe. There are lots of reasons why I love my recipe for slow cooker tomato sauce and why I think you'll love it too - it's cheap, it's versatile, it takes two minutes to prepare and most importantly, it tastes delicious!I generally make it using things I already have in the house so the ingredients like the garlic, chilli and basil are often from my spice rack rather than being fresh but that's just because I have it in already - you can substitute anything you need to. You can also adjust the quantities … [Read more...]

A review of my favourite Christmas Present – The Morphy Richards Soup Maker….
Mr Frugal excelled himself this year with my Christmas present of a Morphy Richards soup maker and even did well by giving it to me on Christmas Eve morning because he knew I'd want to use it as soon as I got it and wouldn't have been able to if he'd given me on on Christmas morning.I love making soups and often make a batch at the start of the week for my work lunches so he decided to buy me the Morphy Richards soup maker to make life easier for me bless him.I've wanted a soup maker for ages but when I looked at the price of them (usually between £50 and £100) they seemed like a bit … [Read more...]

The tang of the lemon flavour goes brilliantly with the warmth … [Read more...]
What’s a good price when it comes to home cooked meals….
I don't tend to think of the meals I cook in terms of how much they cost per portion because I often use food that I get reduced or things that I already have in the house but an article I read a while ago shared a few recipes that cost under 50p a portion.Lots of people were commenting how great it was that you could cook meals so cheaply but I must admit that I did look at some of the ideas and the tiny portion sizes and think that I could do better.But could I do better - is it really possible to feed a family of 4 on a £2 meal budget and still make sure that what you're serving is … [Read more...]
