We do our best with the resources we have, and we plan accordingly. Think about the savings from all those useless sugary and salty snacks you kept busy on.
Consider buying the following:
They are an excellent choice for those looking for healthy options that are quick and easy to prepare. Unlike fresh produce, which can lose nutrients during transportation and storage, frozen vegetables are flash-frozen at peak freshness, ensuring they retain their nutrients and vitamins. Some popular frozen veggies include spinach, leeks, cauliflower, broccoli, and peas.
Frozen fruits can be just as nutritious as fresh ones and a great addition to smoothies, breakfast bowls, and desserts. Berries, in particular, are an excellent frozen fruit option.
A great way to incorporate lean proteins into your diet. Some popular frozen fish options include salmon, cod, tilapia, and shrimp.
Did you know that you can freeze avocado? Next time you only use half of an avocado; instead of throwing it away, place it in the freezer to use later.
Canned foods can be a lifesaver when you need a quick meal. Chicken breast, salmon, albacore tuna, and chunk light tuna are all great options to have on hand.
Buying in bulk is a smart way to save money on groceries. Cook a large meal and pack the leftovers for the next lunch.
Preparing your lunch and bringing it to work is an easy way to eat healthier and save money.
If grass-fed or grass-finished beef is not an option, opt for lean beef with at least 90% lean meat.
Health food stores are one of many places to find healthy products. In addition, many chain supermarkets, grocery stores, and discount department stores offer cheaper products. Some examples include Costco, Walmart, Aldi, Wegmans, and Publix.
Eating leftovers is an easy way to avoid cooking every day.
