I’ll be doing good old pasta again tonight though I’m starting to think I need some veggies.
Suggestion: Broccolini chopped up goes well in a red sauce pasta (pasata base or jar-sauce). Add a bag of spinach; stir it in until it wilts and add more until the whole bag is in. Fills it all out.
edit: grated cheese (woolies brand, block of cheese, grated at home - the pre-grated cheese is a fkn rort) on top also makes it more filling, but cheese is exxy (sigh)
I might try and pickup some more frozen veggies next time as I’m be making more pasta dishes in the coming weeks. Just need to check my budget.
Having to go really cut back and go as cheap as I can.
