Eating on a budget is not only good for your wallet, but it can also be good for your health. When you spend more time eating at home, you know and control the ingredients in your meals, avoiding most of the added sugars, fats, and preservatives often found in processed foods.

Shopping on a budget

  • Plan your meals ahead of time. This will help you stay within your budget. 
  • Buy in bulk when possible. If you can share the cost and split the products with someone else, even better.
  • Shop for the in-season produce.
  • Eat before you go shopping. You will be amazed at what ends up in the cart when you are hungry.

Meal planning and preparation

  • Create a meal plan for a week or two. Planning and having multiple options will help you decrease the take-out days.
  • Create numerous sides for one main dish. This cuts down on the amount of food you need to cook.
  • Cook meals in advance and freeze them. That way, you have healthy meals all ready to go.
  • Make your sauces and dressings. You know what is in them and can use them for other dishes you make.
