Smart Grocery Shopping. Make regular trips to your local grocery store for dietary staples and fresh produce for a healthy diet that won’t break the bank.

Shopping locally also helps the environment. There is a huge saving in fuel consumption because people are not driving long distances to shop. Locally produced goods have not traveled huge food miles to get to their destination, saving the use of non-renewable petroleum which creates pollution to the natural environment.

I do all of the grocery shopping for our family of two. A little over a year ago, I started meal planning in order to make the most of our grocery budget and cook healthy meals. My goal is that by focusing on meal planning now for just the two of us, it will be easy to continue when there are more mouths to feed.

If you do a weekly meal plan, you will know exactly what ingredients need to be bought during your next grocery shopping trip, including the ones you have and those you don’t.

You want to feed your family healthy, tasty food, but so often it seems the advice on how to do that involves shopping at the farmer’s market for organic local produce and cooking every single ingredient of every meal from scratch. Their mayo spreads and salad dressings are made with a short list of real food ingredients.
