Ground turkey is cheap and so versatile. You can use it the same way you would use hamburger. To make sausage just add some sage and garlic powder to it. I love yogurt parfaits. Yougurt topped with granola. Water with fresh orange slices.Recommend me some healthy recipes on a budget?

They are the best!!!!!!!Recommend me some healthy recipes on a budget?

HOT-POT; 2 lbs. of potatoes, 3/4 lb. of onions, 1 breakfastcupful of tinned


tomatoes, or 1/2 lb. of sliced fresh ones, 1 teaspoonful of thyme,


1-1/2 oz. butter, pepper and salt to taste. Those who do not like


tomatoes can leave them out, and the dish will still be very savoury.


The potatoes should be peeled, washed, and cut into thin slices, and


the onions peeled and cut into thin slices. Arrange the vegetables and
add lotus seed , water then cook it , wait until it boils , check the lotus seed and add sugar
spagetti bolognese beef stew
How about some doughnuts! :) Krispy Creams! Dunkin'! Hostesses? Ding Dongs? Little Debbie Snack Cakes?
Get fresh veggies and steam them. Fresh veggies is cheaper then frozen veggies and also much healthier steamed because it do not lose all the vitamins and flavour
go round to your parents help your self and eat for free who needs a budget LOL
Chicken fillet, stuffed with cheese %26amp; bacon wrapped.

Serve with golden rice/savoury rice (pkt) Prep time approx 10 mins, cook time approx 20 mins, cost approx 拢3 or 拢4 for 2 persons
Kedgeree is cheap and cheerful:


chop and fry 1 onion, add 1 cupful of rice per person and fry for a few minutes.Add 1 teaspoon of curry powder, then add some water with a stock cube, cover and simmer until rice is cooked ( you will need to keep checking that the rice doesn't dry out and burn)


Near the end, add a tin of tuna with the juice from tin, a handful of chopped coriander (optional ), and serve with lemon slices and quartered hard boiled egg.
Oatmeal is cheap, and very healthy.
Its a bit of a tough one to do -BUT WORKS!





try two weeks of missing out any added salt and all sugar exept that which is in fruits.





Its difficult but makes a huge difference to your taste buds, then you start tasting healthy foods and you know what? they actually taste good! they become more appetising and you lessen the stregnth of the craving for unhealthy stuff.





Try pasta and rice based foods, they are cheap to make as the bulk of the foods are healthy and bulky so will be more filling.





All meals are healthy in moderation, its just a matter of making sure you stick to moderation!!





Cooking mlarge batches of healthy meals and freezing them can be a blessing as you have a constant freezer of microwave meals!





Try making mixes you can add to meat/pasta and rice such as tuna and tomatoes, sweet and sour mixes (minus noodles), curries and chillis which are pre cooked, then frozen so you can eat another da. When I was a student I used to precook 5 meals. One I would eat the night I cooked it, the rest I froze for another date. I did this every day for a week and after a week had 4X7 meals awaiting me in the freezer! no cooking for a month!!





Try mixing either (when cooked ) with a pre cooked mix of chopped tomatoes, lightly fried (in one calorie spray which lasts forever!) onions and garlic (omit garlic if you dont like it) and tomaote puree (one tsp per portion). Add in a herb or two, try basil and chilli for example, then add in chopped corgetter, peppers and a meat or vege meat such as prawns, tuna or chicken (or any other light meat) or tofu, quorn or even cheese. (if you add cheese, mix in a little quark or fromage frais and mild as oppose to tomatoe puree.) Simmer for a while and eat.





For different flavors, add in one part jar sauce, one part tomatoe puree where the sauce is tomatoe based, its a bit like watering it down and the sauce will work out cheper and last longer.
