A short excerpt from the guide.

To keep your initial investment under £10, we prioritize utility over aesthetics. We are targeting own-brand essentials from supermarkets like Aldi, Lidl, or ASDA. The following items are the non-negotiables required to execute the 14 recipes in this guide. | Item | Purpose | Estimated Cost (Own-Brand) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 8" Chef's Knife | Chopping, dicing, and slicing | £3.50 | | Large Cutting Board | Protecting surfaces and food prep | £1.50 | | Wooden Spoon | Stirring and serving (non-scratch) | £0.50 | | Metal Tenter | Draining pasta, rice, and veg | £1.00 | | Can Opener | Opening beans, tomatoes, and chickpeas | £1.00 | | Plastic Storage Containers (2) | Portioning out meal prep | £2.00 | | **Total** | | **£9.50** | > **Tip:** If your flat has a communal pot or pan, do not buy your own. Use your budget for the items that touch your food directly, like your knife and board,

Questions

I don't have time to cook every day. Will this work for me?

Absolutely! Our meal plan is designed for batch-cooking, so you can cook once and eat twice. You'll spend less time in the kitchen and more time studying or relaxing.

I've tried meal planning before and it didn't work. Why will this be different?

Our guide is specifically designed for students on a budget. It's simple, practical, and tailored to your needs. Plus, it's only £4.99, so there's no risk to give it a try.

I don't have a well-equipped kitchen. Can I still use this guide?

Yes! Our guide includes a section on building a student-friendly kitchen kit for under £10. You don't need expensive gadgets to cook nutritious, budget-friendly meals.

What if I don't like the recipes?

We've chosen recipes that are simple, delicious, and affordable. But if you don't like them, you can always swap them out for your own favourites using the same principles.

How do I get my copy?

Straight after payment you're taken to your download page, and Stripe emails you a receipt. If anything goes wrong, email rhysh1264@gmail.com and we'll send it directly.
