A weekly column where assistant nutrition editor and registered dietitian, Jessica Ball, keeps it real on how to grocery shop on a budget, make healthy meals for one or two, and make earth-friendly choices without overhauling your entire life. Being a recovering graduate student, I am on a budget. That said, I still find ways to have healthy, easy meals that I enjoy nearly every night. I’ll admit, working as a dietitian and nutrition editor at a food website has given me a little leg up on how to make my dollar go further, without sacrificing deliciousness (for example, here are six changes that could save you almost $3,000 per year)....
