What’s your go-to health foods to buy on a budget at the grocer?
I basically feed myself and a healthy girlfriend for about $200 a week. Most shopping trips look like this.
8dz organic pasture raised eggs ~ $50
9lbs 93/7 grass fed and grass finished ~ $60
5lbs organic jasmine rice ~ $10
Apples and whatever fruit on sale ~ $30
4 containers Organic spinach ~ $12
Frozen bags of corn and broccoli and green beans, all organic ~ $16
Whatever good sales on chicken/broth/pork ~ $30-40
This doesn’t include coffee. I’m a fucking coffee snob and usually buy small 10oz bags of whole beans for $20-30 and make pour overs or espresso at my house.
This doesn’t include the occasional dessert anymore either.
Typical meal for both of us is 1 cup rice, 1 bag corn, 1 bag broccoli, 2lbs beef.
Rice usually cooked in bone broth which tastes amazing and also adds copious protein. I usually eat about 2/3 of the food.
Anything left over gets tossed into eggs the next morning.
Is it good or bad that I’m happy to only be spending roughly $1000 on food a month?
