Answer 3

I don't know if the ingredients are more expensive in the UK, but this is what I make if I need to make something quick, cheap and tasty:

Pasta with spinach/boursin sauce
serves 2
150 grams of spaghetti
100 grams of smoked bacon bits
200 grams of frozen spinach
75 grams of Boursin soft cheese

Bake the bacon bits until brown. Add the spinach and let it defrost in the pan. When the bacon/spinach mix is hot, add the Boursin cheese and mix until creamy.
Cook the spagetti following the instructions on the pack. Mix with the sauce and serve.

Answer 4

Red beans and rice
Ma Po bean curd
Frittata

Herb Frittata
1 cup minced herbs (see below)
2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
5 or 6 eggs
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan or other cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Minced fresh parsley leaves for garnish

Instructions
Mince about 1 cup of fresh herbs- chervil, parsley, dill, or basil should make up the bulk of them, but others such as tarragon, oregano, marjoram, or chives may be added in smaller quantities-and stir them into the egg mixture just before turning it into the skillet. Proceed as below, garnishing with whatever herb you like.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Place the butter or oil in a medium-to-large ovenproof skillet, preferably non-stick, and turn the heat to medium. While it's heating, beat together the eggs, cheese, salt, and pepper. When the butter melts or the oil is hot, pour the eggs into the skillet and turn the heat to medium-low. Cook, undisturbed, for about 10 minutes, or until the bottom of the frittata is firm.

Transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake, checking every 5 minutes or so, just until the top of the frittata is no longer runny, 10 to 20 minutes more.(To speed things up, turn on the broiler, but be careful not to overcook.) Garnish and serve hot or at room temperature.
