Following on Twitter

shop the perimeter, no soda at home, buy organic when it matters (certain produce) and save $ on rest. If you can’t pronounce the ingredients, you probably shouldn’t eat it.

Here’s a budget-friendly recipe I eat all the time…

Easy Open-Faced Tuna Melt
Ingredients:
2 slices bread (I use Udi’s gluten-free sandwich bread, but use whatever you like!)
2 slices American cheese (I use Trader Joe’s organic)
1 can tuna
2 TB mayo (can use less if you prefer)
Spices (get creative. My favorite combo is “It’s a Dilly”, garlic powder, onion powder, Shoup’s seasoning [can subst. salt and pepper for Shoups])

Preheat oven (I use a convection oven) to 425.

Mix tuna, mayo, and spices in bowl until mixed together. Lay 2 slices of bread onto oven sheet. Put 1 slice of cheese on each bread piece. Spoon tuna mixture out onto cheese slices…make sure it is an even height.

Put in oven for 5-6 minutes at 425 or until tuna is warm and bread starts to get crusty.

Eat. Yum! Kids love these, too.

My tip is drink lots of water before you eat to fill you up.

Farmer’s markets. They have local food, much of it unsprayed, in-season and come to a neighborhood near you! What more could you ask for. They usually have really good prices too.

When I make a meal such as lasagna, split pea soup, meatloaf, etc., I portion out 1-2 meal size servings and freeze them for a quick homemade meal. I end up with less leftovers – so I don’t have to worry about eating it all before it goes bad – and I can eat healthy homemade even on busy days.
