Asda shoppers can now get a week's worth of dinners for under £5

Amid the worsening cost of living crisis, and with food prices having jumped up considerably in recent months, any ways to save on meals is currently very welcome.

Asda has now launched a recipe plan, with seven budget-friendly evening meals. The new initiative allows customers to feed a family of four their dinner for the entire week for less than £20, or £5 per person.

The supermarket giant has selected items from its Just Essentials range, which was launched last May as household spending power hit a record low.

Asda's plan includes recipes such as tuna and tomato pasta, chicken stew and rice, and sausage and mash. The full plan is available online, so customers can browse the seven recipes and add each ingredient required to their basket, before following the method to create each meal here

The only things shoppers will need to already have are oil, salt and pepper. The meals are said to be "delicious and nutritious", meaning people don't have to skimp on taste in order to save.
