    Healthy eating
    Through my research, I discovered that making healthy
    choices can be appetizing yet low in cost. My goal was to
    find a way to eat healthy while keeping the meals
    inexpensive. While doing so I experimented with foods
    that could be versatile. An example of this is an egg
    carton priced at $1.99. Twelve eggs can go very far such
    as making scrambled eggs, hard boiled eggs, omelets or
    quiche. Overall I learned how eating right benefits your
    wallet, keeps you looking good and makes your taste
    buds happy!
