Healthy Meals on a Budget
Previously Dr. Osborn spoke about the myth of how eating healthy is expensive. Though the idea of eating healthy can be expensive, when planned out the meals are actually cheaper. The issue most individuals have is taking the time to meal plan. This is something that once it becomes routine should only take about 1 hour a day. That is less time than standing in lining for fast food or waiting for dining. We have included in this post a great website that has wonderful, healthy recipes that are not expensive. Sweet Potato Soup is just one of our favorites.
