Utility Iron
How can I buy fresh fruits & vegetables & eat healthy if I can't afford it?
I'm on the EXTREMELY low income scale, & I find that unhealthy foods are cheaper & more readily available than healthy foods, & organic healthy foods are eve MORE expensive. I'd like to change my diet & eat right because my life is on the line. My health is at risk.I seriously find myself living off of HotPockets, corn dogs, & cereal & occasional unhealthy snacks. After paying all my bills, like rent & utilities, I only have like $60 for the month to stretch for food, & that's not good. I receive SSI & Social Security & I'm disabled, & if I work, I'll lose my medical benefits & insurance.
If I buy fruits & veggies alone, that would come up to like $45, & I just found out I'm anemic & my iron is low, so I was told I have to have meat & food from the breads & cereals group in my diet in order to increase my iron level.
Do you have any advice?
healthy and fresh does not mean expensive.
`buy brown rice. a pound of rice is usually around $1
`buy beans, a pound of dry beans is $1
and the canned beans are anywhere from 40-89 cents
beans are very nutritious, high in protein, iron and so many good stuff and low in fat and calories. and cheap
you can make lots of meals with beans like, bean dip, bean tacos with veggies, bean and rice burritos etc..
`tofu-verryyy high in protein and low in fat, $2 a block,and so many things to do with is like stir frys, in salad, sanwhiches, eaten raw, grilled, etc...
`buy a bag of potatoes, which is cheap and you can make lots of foods with them like you can make "French fries", baked potatoes, potato jacket, mashed potatoes, potatoes w/rice, etc..
`oatmeal-this is a really filling meal/healthy and makes an amazing breakfast! about $1-2 for 2 lbs.
`whole grain pasta, make spaghetti, macaroni salad, etc..
`whole wheat/whole grain bread; to make sandwiches, toast, etc..
`whole wheat tortillas to make burritos, veggie wraps, etc..
`soy milk and a healthy cereal box
`frozen vegetables are pretty cheap!
` buy 2lbs of mixed nuts to grab as snacks on the go and mixed dry fruit//very cheap and nutritious!
***********fruits and veggies!!!!!!!!!1**
get the fruits& veggies that are in season cause they are usually cheaper..
buy the store brand..don't buy junk foods and soda..it's more expensive and soo unhealthy.
think about it, a bag of chips is $1 and you eat the whole bag as a snack. and for $1 you can buy 3-5 apples, that is like one snack per day for a whole week!and they won't make you fat or give you diabetes! ...
drinking soda is a WASTE in every way..your wallet, your health, space, everythingg...
good luck xxoxoxoxoxox
It's a well known fact that one of the most important parts of a house that prospective buyers hinge a purchase on is the kitchen. Because most home owners spend so much time every day in the kitchen it is vitally important to have that room be as functional as possible so that it's easy and enjoyable to work in. Both for your own use and for the purpose of selling your home, you should consider perking up your kitchen to make it more appealing.
Now don't get me wrong, kitchens shouldn't be all about "pretty", in fact prettying up a kitchen can make it far less usable and the less useable your kitchen is the less you might want to use it! We're all aware that foods cooked from scratch are generally far more healthy for you than pre-made, store bought items, right? So do yourself a favour, perk up your kitchen so that you actually want to spend time cooking in it and enjoying it.
One interesting way that you can really perk up an existing kitchen that has a useable design is with metal finishes. Many kitchen fixtures and appliances are currently available in a wide range of metal finishes and materials that can add some stunning beauty to this utility space.
Metal-clad appliances are the easiest way to add some metal to your kitchen and can produce some really stunning results; you likely wouldn't want to replace your old appliances unless you were looking to upgrade the energy efficiency of your kitchen or if your appliances all needed replacing though. For best results, a collection of appliances in all the same finish will usually be the most effective.
If you're looking to redo your countertops, you can have some stunning stainless steel counters installed that give your kitchen an almost maintenance-free surface for cooking that has very little opportunity for damage due to its great resilience. Stainless steel will scratch, but most countertop materials will scratch as well; stainless steel is resistant to heat and water, however.
Sinks can be a fabulous focal point for your kitchen and are available in a wide range of metals. If you are looking for an actual metallic finish, there are sinks available in stainless steel, copper, and bronze, as well as cast iron enamelled sinks in a variety of colors. Sinks can range from single to triple bowl sinks depending on your dishwashing requirements. Apron sinks are a nice option if you're investing in a fancy metal or enamel sink and can really add a splash of color to the room. Different finishes are often available for the inside and the edges or the apron of your sink as well. Many sinks come in a smooth, hammered, or brushed finish.
There are some gorgeous bright metals available for kitchens even without looking into custom metalwork but that is also an option if you want something extra special. Check out your local home improvement centre to see what's available in your area!
