You Can Buy These Superfoods for $3 or Less

Looking for some healthy foods on the cheap? You don’t have to break the bank to eat healthy on a budget. These nutritious ingredients cost just a few bucks.

When in season, this superfood sells for $1.00 to $2.00 each. Cut it in half, grab a spoon, add a sprinkle of salt and you’ve got a one-ingredient snack filled with healthy fats, folate and fiber.

There’s no denying the nutrition power of eggs and when they cost less than $0.50 each you can enjoy a big omelet for less than $3.00. To get the most nutrients including lutein, omega-3 fats and protein eat the yolks and the whites.

Choosing whole grain brown rice over white ensures a boost of minerals and hunger squashing fiber. Switch to brown rice in your rice bowls, burritos and stir fries and elevate their nutrition to super status. The best part is the price — a 2-pound bag sells for $2.79.
