Vegetarian Dishes

Not just for vegetarians. Meat less meals can help balance a healthy diet and make the pennies go further.
Meat is can be very expensive and really stretch the purse strings. Making a meal purely from vegetables, pulses and nuts can be made for pennies or even free when foraging.
Many vegetarian dishes can be an accompaniment to meat dishes to.

Free foods
Blending a walk in the country with foraging in the hedgerows can be an enjoyable and rewarding afternoon for all the family.
Blackberry season is the most commonly thought of when talking of foraging in hedgerow but there are lots of berries and plants that can be found.
Wild garlic is one for early spring. Once the growing season is underway there are plants like young dandelion leaves and nettles that make excellent free food.
