With the cold weather drawing in, one mum was keen to find a delicious budget recipe to keep her family fed and warm for less. Luckily, she found just the thing in her dad's beef stew, a hand-me-down family recipe that's gone down a treat with her husband and children.
Ashlie-Lousie Pearson, 34, says the stew costs just 53p per head and is so beloved by her husband Sam, 37, and their two sons, Jack, 11, and Henry, six, that she now makes it at least once a fortnight. Although she's been making it for 20 years, it's only been in the past year or so that she's been able to get it to taste just as good as her dad's.
