Honestly, just planning out your meals before you go to the grocery store and cooking large portions that you can have as leftovers are the best way to eat healthily and save money. For example, I love chipotle but it's expensive, so I found a chipotle chicken copycat recipe and then just add some brown rice, black beans, lettuce, and guacamole and there you go! I will make enough to last about 4 days. I also buy frozen, canned, and fresh vegetables. I'll roast the fresh vegetables after shopping (I like baby asparagus and broccolini) and then later in the week use the canned or frozen vegetables, yes they lack slightly compared to fresh veggies, but it's better than not eating vegetables. I also eat a few pieces of fruit a day, I just bring them to work with me and that will be my snack. Nothing is worse than buying fruit and not eating it and throwing it out, so I try and stick with things I know I like and that I will eat, for me that is bananas, kiwis, oranges, and peaches.

I also just don't buy "snacks" so that forces me to snack on fruit, nuts, or vegetables like carrots. It probably sounds insane, but I never buy chips, ice cream, cookies, etc. If I don't own it, I can't eat it. I also don't drink any soda, it's terrible for you and loaded with sugar. So I save money on snacks and soda. I hope that helped, lol.
