this month for many Aussies, the real start of the year is when school returns. It's the time that reality bites (ahem) and the routine of everyday life begins. It's also the perfect time to arm yourself with everything you can to make your life easier, healthier and tastier than ever before, all without breaking the bank (or a sweat). Well, you've come to the right place for that! Bursting with new ideas, we took on the attitude of go BIG or go home. So, every recipe is BIG on flavour, BIG on the wow factor, BIG on healthiness and BIG on family friendliness, but most of all, BIG on value. The Budget Collection icons below are peppered throughout the issue highlighting recipes that deliver on so much more than…

this month Made to last Make one cook last for a few dishes. Save money and time by making: • a bolognaise that goes on to become a chilli then a baked potato filling; • a ratatouille that becomes the vehicle for baking eggs in, then a pasta sauce; or • a braise base to house the last of that slow-roasted lamb shoulder after it has given you meat for a shepherd's pie and a night of souvas. Add ingredients like pulses, vegies, capers, lemon, chilli, spices or olives to put a totally new spin on one of these more neutral bases. Concentrate on carbs Our peasant ancestors didn't have the luxury of eating meat with three veg, so follow their cash-canny lead and build meals around these budget staples,…
