In the 54-second clip, that amassed 15.4k likes, she quickly demonstrated all the delicious meals you can make with mince – and to make things even better it costs just £2.20 in Ocado and is currently under a ‘price promise’.
Her recipes were “the most popular” from her website, and she wrote: “I have combined them all into a free recipe ebook to give you some meal planning inspo.”
The meals she recommended trying were:
- One pot lasagna
- Lamb and ricotta filo pie
- Spiced mince and hummus

One person wrote: “I love the one-pot lasagne. Never going to make the traditional way again.” Someone else penned: “I want it all!”
Other comments included: “I want to make all of these, yum”, “These are amazing”, “Yum”, “Needed this”, and “That Thai meatball curry looks delicious!”
