It’s funny the things we sacrifice when we’re trying to save money. Some of us cut back on going out at night, some take the bus instead of Uber, while some skimp out on food. Don’t get us wrong, we know grocery shopping can get insanely expensive, especially when you’re trying to buy healthy food (it’s funny how that works, don’t you think?). The thing is, we need food — it’s fuel for our bodies, so it probably should be a priority. That being said, being on a budget is real, and being money-conscious is simply smart. So don’t worry, we have your back.
Now, let’s talk about lunch, which is quite possibly the most neglected meal of the day. Often we’re too busy to eat, and money being a factor doesn’t help the cause.

Luckily we have a solution to this issue, and it’s healthy lunch recipes that you can totally make on a budget.
Really though, there are tons of money-friendly lunch options so you really have no excuse. From enchiladas to pasta salads to delicious soups, there is absolutely something that will fit your taste buds and your bank account.
