Easy tinned tomato risotto

Adding tinned tomatoes to your risotto adds loads of umami flavours without any expensive ingredients.

Butternut squash stew

Butternut squash makes a lovely vegetarian stew when mixed with a few store cupboard ingredients. A great dinner for busy days where you want something cheap and healthy. If you add plant-based yoghurt, it’s also vegan.

Sardinesca

Like a puttanesca sauce, but with sardines in place of the anchovies, this simple storecupboard pasta recipe works well with any strongly flavoured tinned fish. Each serving provides 504 kcal, 23g protein, 50g carbohydrates (of which 5g sugars), 22.5g fat (of which 3g saturates), 4g fibre and 1.3g salt.

Tuna melt

This classic tuna melt can be made in a frying pan! If you like a little more texture to your toastie, it also works well with a tablespoon of finely diced celery folded through the filling.
