RECOMMENDATIONSCHOICES FOR A RESTRICTED BUDGET
  • Eat a variety of vegetables.
  • Include dark-green leafy vegetables (spinach, mustard and collard greens) or deep-yellow vegetables (carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin) at least every day.
  • Eat more vegetable based-meals (e.g. vegetable stew).
  • Add extra vegetables to main dishes (e.g. lasagne, casseroles, curries, stir-fries) salads and soups.
  • Choose any vegetable in season. They are cheaper, fresher and more nutritional.
  • Buy only fresh vegetables as wilted or vegetables lying in the sun have lost a lot of their nutritional value.
  • Outside leaves of lettuce, cabbage and cauliflower and the tops of turnips and beetroot can be used as they are rich in vitamins and minerals.
  • Limit the purchasing of expensive vegetables such as mushrooms, green peppers and bean sprouts. Find cheaper ways to flavour dishes.
  • Starting a vegetable garden is an easy and inexpensive way to provide fresh vegetables. However this does take time, patience and dedication. ?
