It goes to show that eating 3 times a day can be done at this price if you go back to basics & sprinkle a little bit of creativity. <br /><br />Thanks for providing the blogroll - I'm looking forward to seeing how everyone gets on this year!

I am going to donate what I would normally spend on food a week to a local food bank who were asking for donations at the supermarket last week.

It can open their eyes to the world around them and also help them to understand just how much it costs to actually eat as a family.<br /><br />You could get them involved in every stage of the planning, purchasing and then cooking the foods.<br /><br />If the family simply won't come round do it yourself and have your meals with them but made from your ingredients, harder to do and oh so tempting if you're not made of stern stuff, but again it would be an eye opener for them.<br /><br />Good luck with it if you decide to go ahead.
