Cooking a healthy meal isn’t just a matter of finding the lowest calorie foods in your fridge. It starts at the kitchen counter, planning your week’s worth of meals. That’s right—the time you spend planning and then picking items in the store will make or break your meal prep. Make sure you select and purchase the most healthy kinds of foods. Then, when you get home, you can prepare some delicious and nutrient rich meals.

Oh, what's that? Your budget is super small? That's no problem! Preparing a nutritious meal while keeping the cost relatively low is a surprisingly easy feat if you know what to look for. Buying a package of ramen noodles may be the cheapest way to go, but it’s definitely not the healthiest. The key here is to balance cost and nutrition.

About Max Kelley

Let’s start here: I’m a traveler. And a writer.

Producing fun, silly, and engaging words is my bread and butter (mmm, butter) and I'm interested in creating highly informative yet entertaining articles for my wonderful internet audience. 

I'm also a super awkward human in general and I love to share the stories of the potentially embarrassing moments I get myself into. 

In my time as a writer I've covered everything from blogging and news reporting to marketing and SEO. I plan to continue sharing my words with you all as long as I am breathing. And then once I've been converted into a zombie I'll keep on sharing.
