We all know that budgets are tight these days, and everybody feels it more at Christmas, but here at Tesco Real Food we want to remind everybody that home-cooked food is still the best. We know that you can cook a delicious festive meal and save money. So we asked four of the country’s favourite food bloggers to cook a Christmas dinner for four for £40 and help provide inspiration to get the nation cooking this Christmas.
And our four bloggers are (drum roll please…):
frugalfamily.co.uk
Cass Bailey keeps a frugal family diary at frugalfamily.co.uk, packed full of thrifty tips on how to survive the credit crunch and keep an eye on those pennies.
crumbsfood.co.uk
Claire McDonald and her sister blog from crumbsfood.co.uk and are always looking for ways to add to their repertoire of quick, easy meals to feed their families.
cookingcakesandchildren.com
Amy Lane is a baker extraordinaire. As well as blogging at cookingcakesandchildren.com, she also runs an online monthly bake club with her followers.
utterlyscrummy.blogspot.com
Michelle Rice blogs about uncomplicated family food and handy shortcuts in the pursuit of delicious food from her site, utterlyscrummy.blogspot.com.
All our bloggers have entered are preparing a Christmas dinner for four on a budget (£40 to be exact!) and we’re very excited to see what they come up with.
It’s going to be a very tough decision… We’ll be announcing the winner tomorrow, so watch this space.
