Preparing Budget Foods

The best way to take advantage of buying budget foods in bulk is to cook them in bulk. Choose your recipes carefully — make meals that allow you to cook large amount of food at once so you can freeze the leftovers for a second meal. That cuts back on valuable time and gas spent going to and from the market and the amount of time you have to spend cooking.


It’s important to always have a plan for your leftovers to maximize every dollar spent. “If you bake a whole chicken, use leftover chicken in a salad or sandwich the next day for lunch," suggests Brennan.


Eating healthy on a budget does require some effort and planning, but the reward is worth it — affordable, healthy food on your family's table.
