As part of my quest to share with readers budget friendly ways to eat healthy, I'll be randomly posting for A Sizable Apple's nutrition on a budget project. One of my favorite healthy tips is with soups. You can find some inexpensive healthy options like Progresso 99% fat free soups, weight watchers 0 point options, and low sodium options as well. After finding a soup you like, contemplate ways to spice it up.
You can stretch your can for a few meals by adding to it, thickening it up and making it more of a stew. Add a handful of pre-cooked barley or beans for fiber, through in a few handfuls of frozen veggies or cubed meat. Adding in can add to the nutritious value of your meal, plus, it's a great way to camouflage some foods you know are good for you but can't quite get yourself to eat. Dice up tofu and throw it in and after simmering for 5 minutes, you won't remember it's there.
