A More Sustainable Adventure

BUDGET MEAL PREP | healthy recipes under $3 (using high-quality ingredients)

By letter2self on February 5, 2023



Yes, you can meal prep healthy food even if you’re on a budget! I’ll show you how to meal prep 11 individual ingredients and turn those into 7 nutrient-dense, quick-assembly meals throughout the week. This is my tried-and-true method for getting healthy food on the table fast – and you can save money!

Unlike most budget meal prep videos that (let’s be honest) use cheap quality ingredients, I don’t sacrifice quality in this video. All of my ingredients are high-quality and/or organic ingredients. But if you opt to not use organic ingredients, the total price of your meals will be even less!

► BUDGET MEAL PREP PDF:
Because of your amazing comments and feedback on my meal prep series I created a PDF guide of this meal prep plan. You can download it here: https://mailchi.mp/downshiftology/meal-prep/

► PREORDER MY COOKBOOK!!!
I’m excited to *finally* show off my new cookbook and I would be incredibly grateful if you pre-ordered it here: https://downshiftology.com/cookbook/
