Pasta, potatoes and rice are two essentials. I assume you eat meat so try to get fresh meat from your local butcher as this will be cheaper that than the pre-packed store bought variety. Also buy loads of fresh vegetables from your greengrocer or supermarket.
Quick easy healthy recipe?
Lightly fry your choice of meat (cut into strips) in a pan with some olive oil, garlic, ginger and a bit of chilli (if you so desire). When that is cooked, add some courgette, mange tout, carrots, or whatever other vegetables you like (as many types as you like). Fry for a few minutes until the veggies are cooked but still firm and serve with rice.

Buy Heads of iceberg lettuce (about a dollar a piece) Buy some bonelss skinless chicken.
Sprinkle all purpose seasoning on the chicken (adobo cheap and taste amazing on poultry, fish and meat) Sautee the chicken in a little oil (veggie, canola, corn all work great, use about 1tbsps per pound of chicken.
Tose the chicken with lettuce and a chopped tomato. Add dressing as desired.
This is an amzing tasting, awesomely cheap easy meal to make and enjoy! Have it as often as you wish because it is very very healthy!
Good Luck & enjoy!

The most natural and healthy diet for humans is an omnivorous diet, and not a plant based diet, or a meat-based diet per se. The Paleo Diet can be very widely varied and omnivorous for the most part, but the most important thing is that it’s unprocessed, and avoids the worst foods that agriculture brought mankind… refined inflammatory vegetable oils, refined grains (some are worse than others), and sugar!

As you can see, the benefits of adopting a Paleo way of eating can be incredible! I’ve been eating 95% Paleo for the last 5-6 years and I’ve never felt better. I have dozens of friends that have adopted a more Paleo way of eating too, and have seen all sorts of health problems disappear, including eliminating acne and other skin problems, digestion problems, improving brain clarity, and of course, losing a lot of body fat!

How about pasta in sauce either brought or home made, Baked potato's with beans, or tuna and sweetcorn [instead of the beans] and a side salad, Mashed potato's and sausage are another cheap meal to do.

Vegetables and fruits are quite expensive if you buy them fresh. You can get frozen vegetables and make a stir fry (fry them with noodles, chicken and soy sauce for example). It's easy and healthy!
You can also try a vegetable omelette: break and beat 1 or 2 eggs, cut some red pepper in, add some peas, tomatoes and fry the whole. when it's half done, put it in the oven to cook the top. you can also add cheese.
It's also easy to add vegetables (from frozen mixed bags), in any pasta bake, in rice side dish!

Wild rice, 1 can Campbell's cream of chicken soup, 1 can chicken, 1 can whole kernel corn (not creamed corn). Heat and mix up together in a bowl. Dash with pepper (optional). One of my favorite all-time recipes. Easy to make, nutritious and very tasty. Great for a cold day.
