Didn't really spend much of anything today. Had porridge for brekkie (made with water cos had no milk) with a bit of syrup in. I already had the oats so that didn't cost anything.
Lunch I had leftover stew from New Year and a mini roll as a colleague kindly brought in some treats, so that didn't cost anything.
I spent £0.85 on milk today so I have £9.15 to last me until next Thursday as far as getting any extra supplies in goes.
Dinner will be chilli con carne which contains lots of veg (in fact mostly veg), so between the stew and the chilli I will have had my 5 a day. I don't have any fresh fruit in at the moment, or any fresh veg - the only thing I'm starting this month with is stuff from the cupboard, so canned veg (nothing frozen either as my fridge's icebox needs defrosting very badly). One of the most challenging things about this will be ensuring I do continue to get my 5 a day, as I tend to eat large amounts of expensive fresh fruit normally. I'll have to be more inventive on this budget.
