Budget-Friendly Tips for Healthy Eating

Rising food costs can hinder healthy eating, but the American Heart Association recommends simple swaps like homemade vinaigrettes, frozen veggies, lentils, beans, tofu, and lean proteins to maintain a nutritious diet without breaking the bank. Opt for affordable grains like brown rice, quinoa, and barley, and utilize canned, dried, and frozen foods for nutritious options while reducing food waste. Explore low-sodium and no-sugar-added choices, and incorporate frozen fruits and vegetables into your meals for a budget-friendly approach to healthy eating.
