About Us

Welcome to FoodHam!

Hi, I’m Waltzing Matilda — budget meal prep enthusiast and grocery hacker! I created FoodHam to share everything from money-saving Tesco and Asda tricks to crispy air fryer favourites for busy UK households.

My Journey

It started with a silly little challenge: could I cook a full week of proper tasty dinners for a pound a portion? I raided the reduced aisle, dusted off the slow cooker, and discovered that budget cooking wasn’t about eating boring food — it was about being clever with it. My friends couldn’t believe the fakeaways and hearty meals coming out of my kitchen for pennies.

Then the air fryer arrived and changed everything — crispy roasties, fakeaway classics, and reheated meal prep that actually tasted fresh. FoodHam is where I share the whole system: £1 meal plans, slimming-friendly recipes, and air fryer hacks that make budget food genuinely exciting.

My Experience

I’ve spent years putting budget recipes through their paces — costing every portion down to the penny, testing which supermarket own-brands are actually worth it, and tweaking air fryer timings until they’re foolproof. Every recipe on FoodHam has survived my kitchen multiple times before it earns a place here.

Not wanting all that trial and error to go to waste, I decided to use FoodHam as a way to share my own meal prep guides, recipes, plans, and money-saving resources with my community — and now, I’d like to continue to share that experience here with you!
