Preparing healthy meals on a budget feels out of reach for a lot of families, which leads to consuming more processed food because it is easy to cook and it is cheaper. Unfortunately, processed food can negatively impact your family’s health and can contribute to food ruts and picky eating.

On today’s show, we are talking with Lisa Leake, a mother, blogger, and author who has a new cookbook about eating healthier on a budget. She has been feeding her family on a more health-conscious and budget-friendly diet and it has made a massive difference for their lives. She is on the podcast to share some of her strategies for motivating your family to eat less processed foods while not breaking the bank.

Listen in to our conversation and think about what changes you can make in your cooking habits to eat healthier and help your children grow to actually enjoy eating nutritious foods!
