I do MOSTLY organic. Very little processed food here. I find it cheaper, imho. Processed is scary expensive!

I also do meat free 2-3x/week. I am adding in fish on fridays and would love to go meat free other than the fish.

We do yogurt, cottage cheese, eggs, beans for proteins for lunch often.

Organic rice and pasta are inexpensive. I also do farmers market, a farm co-op, and if I can't get it there, we use frozen organic fruits and veggies.

Today we had homemade spanish rice & beans, carrots, blueberries
org rice ($3.99) but I used two cups out of the box
beans (.99/can)
smoothies(1.99 blueberries)
yogurt (2.99, I used 1/4 of the tub)
baby carrots ($1.19).

The entire meal probably cost me $5-6

We have organic cereal (2.49-I use about 1/2 a box each meal) and org bananas (.79/lb) once a week for breakfast. Under $2 to feed 6 kids an organic breakfast? Sure beats donuts!
