Same for veggies - we try and grow a lot so it really is organic and cheap, too! Now I can't wait for winter to be over to do that.Leslie https://www.blogger.com/profile/17430815366297302202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3751302103185267921.post-89001505739991559342010-01-22T07:19:52.333-08:002010-01-22T07:19:52.333-08:00Special diets make it much harder to eat on a budg...Special diets make it much harder to eat on a budget. My daughter can't do gluten so I do buy her some of the Pamela's brand cookies once a month for a treat. She's able to do dairy now that we switched to raw milk. <br />Our snacks are mostly fruits, popcorn, cheese, and baked goodies oh and yogurt. Our fruit and veggie budget is crazy though. I can easily spend $75 a week on just produce! I'd love to reduce that but it's hard to say no to something so healthy!The Farmer https://www.blogger.com/profile/10091997875083650670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3751302103185267921.post-44570206796776110242010-01-22T06:49:38.076-08:002010-01-22T06:49:38.076-08:00In trying to switch to a more organic diet I have ...In trying to switch to a more organic diet I have noticed that it would be easy (but expensive) to just start buying the same things organic. BUT most of that stuff has dairy and eggs in it, so I can't buy it anyway - ends up being a good thing.<br /><br />In the process of using up what we have and then not buying those things again, one of my problems is wondering what to feed the kids. Especially at snack time or in lunch boxes. They have really started enjoying nuts though and I hesitate to say no to such a healthy food. WE do popcorn, and I have been pushing boiled eggs and yogurt on 3 of the 4. <br /><br />It is a learning process for sure! Thanks for all the guidance.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16958981528207127681noreply@blogger.com
