RECIPE TIPS
SHOPPING FOR ONE
It’s often cheaper to buy meat, chicken and fish in larger packs, so divide it into portions and freeze for another time.
THINK AHEAD
Plan your meals so that you can recycle your leftovers, for instance cook extra boiled potatoes one night and use them in a frittata the next day.
