Eating Healthy on a Budget

Food prices are going up, incomes generally aren't, but eating healthy on a budget is absolutely possible.

The Environmental Working Group's guide to Good Food on a Tight Budget gives advice on making it affordable.

Whole chicken is cheaper.

Whole or cut up bone-in chicken is cheaper than boneless, so make a big batch and use it all week (sandwiches, stir-fries, soups, pasta) or freeze the extra.
