Print Healthy Eating Costs Too Much?
Think healthy eating cost too much? Think again. Consider the following suggestions for trimming your diet and your budget . . .
• Make water your main drink.
• Pack a lunch instead of getting take-out every day.
• Buy fresh fruits and vegetables in season.
• Snack on home-made popcorn instead of potato chips.
• Eat beans or tofu in place of meat, two or three times each week.
Be careful of coupons - especially for food you wouldn't normally buy. Just because it's on sale doesn't mean you're saving money.
