shouldn't break the bank. In fact, with a little planning and creativity, you can enjoy

delicious and nutritious meals without overspending.

What's Holding You Back from Healthy Eating?

We've all been there - standing in the grocery store, staring at the shelves, feeling

overwhelmed by the options and unsure of what to choose. Maybe you've tried fad diets

or restrictive eating plans that left you feeling deprived and frustrated. Perhaps you're

on a budget. Whatever your challenges, know that you're not alone, and we're here to

help.

A Good Healthy Grocery List?

A good healthy grocery list should include a variety of whole foods, such as:

Fresh fruits and vegetables
Whole grains like brown rice, quinoa, and whole wheat bread
Lean proteins like chicken, fish, and beans
Healthy fats like nuts, seeds, and avocados
Low-fat dairy products like milk, yogurt, and cheese

Frugal Yet Healthy Grocery List

You don't have to break the bank to eat healthy. Here are some frugal yet healthy

grocery options:

Buy in bulk: Purchase items like brown rice, quinoa, and canned goods in bulk to
save money.
Shop for seasonal produce: Choose fruits and vegetables that are in season to
get the best prices.
Plan your meals: Avoid last-minute takeout or dining out by planning your meals
in advance.

2 Actionable Tips to Get You Started

1. Plan Your Meals Around What's in Season: By choosing seasonal produce,

you can save money and enjoy fresher, more flavorful fruits and vegetables.

Some great seasonal options in the Boston area include apples, carrots, and

sweet potatoes.

2. Shop the Store's Weekly Sales: Check the weekly ads for your local grocery

stores and plan your meals around the items that are on sale. Stock up on non-

perishable items when they're at their cheapest and use coupons or cashback

apps to maximize your savings.

Here are some healthy grocery ideas to get you started:

Fresh berries or citrus fruits for a quick snack
Leafy greens like spinach or kale for a nutrient-packed salad
Canned beans or lentils for a protein-rich meal
