The Humble Yum Yum System Just Got Better (And Cheaper)

4 meals. 1 pantry. Even more savings.

If you’ve followed my work on Eat Well for Less NZ or The Humble Yum Yum programme, you’ll know the system:

👉 4 recipes from 1 shared pantry 👉 Designed to save money, reduce waste, and build real cooking confidence

But I’ve just updated it.

And this version is simpler, tighter, and cheaper than ever.

💰 The New Numbers (Based on 12 April Prices)

Let’s get straight to it — because this is where it gets exciting:

• 🛒 $123 → builds your full pantry

• 🍲 $61 → cooks all 4 meals (4–5 portions each)

• 📦 $57 → still left in your pantry

• 🔁 $48 → top-up to cook all 4 again

What does that actually mean?

👉 You’re feeding your family 16–20 meals from one system 👉 Then doing it again for under $50

That’s real, practical, everyday savings.

🧠 How the System Works

It’s simple:

1. Shop once

Buy the full pantry list and stock your kitchen properly

2. Cook 4 meals

Each recipe uses the same ingredients in a smarter way

3. Top up only what you use

That’s where the savings really kick in

🛒 How to Shop (Important)

Don’t overthink it.

👉 Just follow the pantry list and buy it once

Most items:

• Last multiple cooks

• Carry over week to week

• Get reused across recipes

That’s the whole point.

🚀 Why This Matters

Food costs aren’t going down.

But how we cook can change everything.

This system is about:

• Control over your food spend

• Confidence in the kitchen

• Consistency week after week

And most importantly: Feeding your family properly without breaking the bank
