Motivated by her experience of reaching for cheap and unhealthy food while studying at University, Mimi created her blog and instagram platform to provide healthy and affordable alternatives that prove that delicious doesn't have to mean expensive. When I got tired of the unhealthy food I was consuming, I began mapping out my meal prep ideas to see if I could spread more expensive ingredients across different recipes. From the recipes to the meal plans and meal prep hacks, this book highlights all the tactics that I use to enjoy delicious food that doesn’t break the bank. Here to show you that you can still indulge in bakes, puddings and sweet treats, this collection of lighter recipes is perfect for anyone with a sweet tooth. With tips on Meal Prepping and how to make many recipes in your slow cooker or air fryer , this book has everything you need on a budget.

This cookbook is a collection of easy, flavour-packed recipes to help you take the stress out of meal times and get an amazing dish on the table without breaking the bank.It’s in collaboration with charity End Child Food Poverty, and the team regularly share easy and cheap recipes to feed the whole family. When looking for recipes to pair together, think about ingredients that would cost more than one pound and see if you can find another recipe that can share the cost of that ingredient (for example, frozen bags of meat, cream, cheeses, vegetables, etc). An example of this that I like to use is sharing a pot of crème fraiche- you can add a dollop to soup, loosen and drizzle over fajitas or use it as the base for a creamy pasta/risotto. Make your friends a showstopping Boujee Brunch, your family a mouth-watering Gnocchi Bolognaise Bake, or yourself a nourishing Miso Noodle Bowl in less than 15 minutes.
