I usually do my shop online with a plan for what I am going to cook. If I find myself doing some impulse items I remove them. I let myself get one sweet and one savoury treat a week and a one portion size of those not enough for a week or a family. It’s winter soon so I would suggest some lentils and beans and making some nice soups or stews like black bean and tomato chilli. It freezes great and you can make enough for a lot of meals. Some winter veg like cauliflower, carrots, you can make some cauliflower soups or dishes. I like to make a one pan dish with this I chop up cauliflower, broccoli, red onions and place on a baking tray along with tofu and bake it all for about 30 mins depends on the temp. You can serve it as a buddah bowl with quinoa or brown rice and make a tahini lemon dressing to go over up. Add some nuts and other vegetables at the time. Good luck
