I've been trying my best and I have some rough ideas, but at the moment money and time are not on my side.

Any ideas of quick, healthy meals that don't cost loads of money and will really help me bulk up?

Omlette and toast
1 whole eggs
4 egg whites
3 oz canned pink salmon
frozen spinach (thawed and drained)
mushroom
onion

In a bowl combine the eggs, salmon and spinach. Add some black pepper and a squeeze of lime juice and a little water.
Chop onion and dry fry in a skillet until soft. Add the mushrooms and cook a little longer till mushrooms start to sautee.
