Healthy snacks - Cheap!


!±8± Healthy snacks - Cheap!

It 'happened again - yet another title this week is assumed that only the rich can afford to eat healthy. This makes me mad! Apparently some healthy foods will be more expensive than their unhealthy counterparts, but I was offended when the media makes these kinds of articles. It tends to put the idea in the minds of men who do not even bother trying to eat healthy - it's just too expensive. So it's not true! and an extra! because I seriously. Anyone canafford to eat healthy. All it takes is some creativity and a little 'research. Snacking is a great way to add nutrition to your day wonderful, and should not be expensive. A bag of crisps to eat unhealthy, the majority of people in one or two servings is more crowded than a couple of very nutritious alternatives.

To prove my point, I thought that the cost per serving of 12 healthy snacks. For almost everyone, I looked at my local grocery store without looking for coupons or sales. ServiceDimensions were simply used in the packages. For cereals and nuts, it is much cheaper, a business that offers to find these items in bulk. If your regular supermarket does not offer it at your local health food store grains and nuts are loose in boxes.

I must admit that the result surprised even me. I list them here from most expensive to cheapest:

12 greek yogurt with ¼ cup of fiber one cereal - $ 1.29

11 low-fat cottage cheese with ¼ cup raspberries (fromfrozen) - $ 1.05

10 Pera with a stick of string cheese, low fat - $ 1.03

9 Celery with Almond Butter - 92 ¢

8 Apple with natural peanut butter - 81 ¢

Carrots with hummus 7 - 77 ¢

6 whole wheat crackers covered with low-fat cream cheese and grapes, halved - 73 ¢

5 whole wheat crackers, sprinkle with low-fat cheese (microwave to melt) - 68 ¢

Handful of raw almonds 4 - 60 ¢

Homemade trail mix 3 (I £ 1 cereal with flax and hempSeeds, ¾ pound unsalted roasted peanuts and 1 bag of Ghirardelli chocolate chips baked 60%). He made 21 (½ cup) servings - 46 ¢

2 banana slices, sprinkled with cocoa powder - 31 ¢

and the star of the show -
