Tips for healthier eating on a budget from star chefs

Tips for healthier eating on a budget from star chefs

It seems like everyone these days is trying to figure out how to save money, and, hopefully, eat a little healthier at the same time. Oprah devoted an hour on Wednesday to helping three families (and, by extension, the rest of us) do just that by sending celebrity chefs to their homes to observe, shop and cook with them.
The show ended up being as much a sad tale about the lack of ability most Americans have in the kitchen these days as it was about saving money on food. The resounding lesson: stop buying so much takeout and prepared foods and learn to cook for yourself if you really want to save money.

I just got through watching the show, my wife had put it on the DVR. One thing that really stood out, who is teaching us to cook healthy and cheap ? not the home cooks, but full fledged CHEF'S. I enjoyed the show, it was informative, and educational. I got ideas that will help cut our budget if I can get the wife to quit buying her boxed, frozen, prepared food junk.
