Getting dinner on the table in the middle of the week is hard enough without cooking three different meals to keep everyone happy. Add rising food bills, the usual battle against waste and the temptation to fall back on the same handful of dinners, and even a supposedly simple Tuesday night supper can start to feel like admin.
That is where Budget Bites comes in. Our series with Sorted Food is designed to make everyday cooking easier, cheaper and less wasteful, with recipes that make sensible use of familiar ingredients without feeling austere. This week, the focus is firmly on family-friendly midweek meals: quick, comforting dishes that can get from fridge to table without taking over the evening.
