Just read the cheap meal recipes. I know they would not feed my husband after a hard day at work, and he is not over weight or or an unhealty eater, these just arn't enough. Try this, i can feed 6 on this , one packet of cheapest pasta, two jars of the cheapest pasta sauce and one tub of soft cheese. cook the pasta as instructed, mix with the sauce and cheese. sprinkle the top with cheese and bake for 15-20 mins in a moderate oven. Serve with a green salad and a french stick. variations include peppami slices or sliced black olives. yum!!!
