In general, eating fruits and vegtables as the main dish and lean meat as the side dish helped me. Buy local produce, if you can.





Beans, whole wheat rice,whole wheat pasta are cheap and good for you.





Adding spices varies the flavor of the dish. Real important to not get bored with what you eat.





I look at this website first to see what is healthy, figure out the type of foods you like, and then look at the websites listed.
