How to budget on this meal plan

Maximize your budget by focusing on seasonal produce, which is often cheaper and fresher. Utilize store brands for staples like olive oil and canned goods. Grow your own herbs and veggies if possible, and take advantage of community gardens or local farm shares. Homemade meals and snacks are far more cost-effective than processed options.

  • Baked zucchini chips
  • Deviled eggs
