The first issue of Student Foodie magazine told you all about a day in the life of University of Lincoln Rugby League player Connor Maclellan’s life and how to make the meals that he recommended.
However, we know how strapped students are for cash so here’s a guide to where you can get those ingredients at their cheapest.

Porridge and Scrambled Eggs
The branded porridge that is probably the most value for money at the minute is Quaker’s Oats, which is often on offer at the major supermarkets. Tesco are currently offering two boxes for £3.50 until the end of the month.

As for eggs, Asda currently has Lancashire’s Finest free range eggs with two 12 packs for £4, which is ideal if you’re planning on having this meal daily or on a regular basis.

Chicken fillets, Rice and Broccoli
If you’re looking for frozen chicken fillets than Iceland is probably your best value for money. They’re currently offering three 1 KG bags for £10. Yep, that’s a lot of chicken but will save you a lot of money in the long run.

There are a number of different rice’s you can try but you can get a 500g bag of long grain rice from Tesco for as little as 99p. It shouldn’t cost you a lot either way.

Broccoli doesn’t last long so it might be best to get smaller quantities at a time for a student. 335g is just 49p at Tesco and will last you around 3 days.

Homemade Protein Shake
The cheapest place for your protein rich ingredients like cheese and butter is ASDA, who seem to have a lot of offers on dairy products.

Then, it’s up to you what fruit you want. None of your usual fruits are overly expensive but apples and bananas are the cheapest. You can get a five pack of bananas for just £1 from Tesco and that amount of applies is also the same price.
