    I'll second Rouge. Home made flour tortillas are delicious and cost almost nothing. We like them for breakfast on the weekend with scrambled egg and sujuk (it's a sausage like a chorizo - or normal sausages are good too) and cheese. Or whatever you like really. The recipes call for vegetable shortening but I've substituted butter before when I was out of copha and for my brother uses the fat off roasts (which is a lot yummier than it sounds).
    They are great for family cooking because one person can make the balls while another rolls and another cooks.

    chick peas are quite cheap and can make yummy meals on their own (vegie dishes) or with meat.

    same with red lentils.

    can you grow any vegies/herbs at your new place?

    I have nothing to offer ATM as my brain is tired and my body worse, but I rarely buy beef mince. Chicken and turkey mince are much lower in fat and cheaper. If DH is insisting on regular I buy pork and veal mince.
