| Shop from the outside aisles – this is
where most of the non-processed foods are. The inner aisles of grocery
stores are all packaged and cost more
When your favorite vegetables come in
season, buy lots. Peppers are easy to freeze – no blanching required,
just cut in slices, bag them and freeze them. Prices can be 1/3 of
what the out of season vegetable costs.
To avoid throwing out food you haven’t
used make a plan for the week that includes the foods in your fridge
that need to be used before spoiling. This also takes the guess work
out of what to have for dinner or lunch every day.
Cut your juice down with water. Most
juices are heavy with sugar or glucose. Using this idea can make a can
of juice last twice as long and cut your sugar intake as well.
