Eating Healthy on a Budget

Posted by leah on Jun 26, 2008

Registered Dietician Holly Scherer from University of Michigan has a few tips for eating healthy when you are short on cash:

  • make your own coffee (rather than buying it out - I have an even better idea for 9-5 types - drink the free coffee provided at many workplaces)
  • buy fruits and vegetables that are in season
  • skip the drive through window
  • replace meat, which is expensive, with protein sources like beans or eggs, which are cheaper
