Are you wanting to add more vegetables and fruits to your plates, but wonder if you can afford it? Right now, you’re already spending quite a bit on groceries weekly, mainly on meats, eggs, and processed foods. Yes, you’re also buying carrots, apples, and other produce items, but it’s not a lot. The rising food prices, though, including those in the fresh produce department, have gotten you worried. Maybe you’re thinking, “Things are going to get WAY more expensive if I eat plant-based and start buying more fruits and veggies!”

Well, it doesn’t have to be. Eating plant-based doesn’t need to cost you an ‘arm and a leg’…unless of course you go about buying plant-based foods the wrong way. In this episode, I want to tell you about a KEY mistake that many people often make – specifically in the fresh produce department – which can end up costing you quite a bit over time. So if you’re wanting to save on food dollars but still nourish your body with health-boosting fruits and veggies, grab your ear buds and join me inside this episode. I’ll meet you there!
