Eating healthy doesn't have to be expensive. Brown rice, fruit (albeit that can add up), whole wheat bread or english muffins go a long way, oatmeal, black beans and of course the assorted veggies. Add meat (fish, chicken, turkey) in moderation....and stir. :p

I think the trick is to not buy expensive organic produce on top of all the other stuff you buy, just adding to the cost--it's to replace processed food, which is more expensive, with more healthful stuff.

If you buy mostly produce, organic or not, and less processed food, you will still save money.
