Annique Healthy Lifestyle on a
Budget (For Winter)
1. Shop at
farmer's markets
Don't be afraid to negotiate at a market. Here again,
if you buy bulk, ask for a cash discount. The seller
can only say no, or maybe even throw in some more
produce for free.
2. Look out for special offers
Hunt for special offers on frozen
veggies and meat and stock up when you
find a bargain. It will pay off in the long run.
3. Grow your own
Growing your own vegetables is fun, easy and
economical. Get the kids involved and make
it a family project.
9. Avoid pre-cut vegetables and meat pieces
4. Soup up
your menu
Soups are not only
super nutritious, but also
easy to make and store.
Time constrained cooks can cook
soup over the weekend and divide
portions for lunch or dinner. The
perfect winter comfort food. Pack in
a flask for kids to take to school.

Lifestyle Programme
5. Buy in bulk
Look for savings on minced meat and other meat
products when you buy in bulk. You can cook two
meals and freeze one for later. This also saves
preparation time for your second meal.
6. Buy seasonal produce
Seasonal fruit and vegetables are more
affordable and provide better nutrition. Foods
that are out of season are often imported and cost
more because of shipping and warehousing. Local,
seasonal produce also tastes better!
7. Plan your meals
Planning your meals helps to take the guesswork
out of cooking and can help you save, by optimising
your menu. Less food gets thrown away when you
plan, and left overs can be eaten the next day.
8. Egg-xeptional meals
Eggs are highly nutritious, affordable sources of
protein. These little wonders are also amazingly
versatile, and are a hurried cook's best
friend. Ideal for breakfast, lunch
or dinner, the options are
endless!
9. Home-made goodness
Home-made spices, sauces and condiments
not only taste great, but can save a lot of money
