Feed your family Easy Seasonal meals on just $25- A week!
You may be one of the many with the misconception that healthy foods are expensive...

Think again. If you know where to shop, what to buy and how to prepare it you can turn seasonal produce into budget friendly mouth watering meals. Is this a difficult thing to do? Not really. Shopping for seasonal produce can be done at.... ta-dah your local Farmers' Market! In California a vast range of produce grows year long! So we OC locals are sitting on a wealth of potential savings! A weekly trip to the farmers' Market will prove to save you huge amounts of money each week. Not to mention could also save you money in health care costs down the road.
In mid 2008 I had to change my entire life around to accommodate the fact that I no longer had the income I was used to...I went from "Having it all" To nothing at all! No longer did I have the money to eat out all of the time. And I had to quit buying pricey processed frozen meals from the supermarket. I started to develop easy recipes. Simple preparation AND easy clean up. By using only fresh Farmers' Market produce and bargain bulk ingredients from Costco, my health really thanked me! I lost weight. My nails grow long and strong! And my skin is clear and seems to glow! Most importantly I'm a lot happier and have learned how to be frugal and healthy at the same time!
