Frugal Vegetarian, Meal Planning, Eating Healthy Meals

Here's some Frugal Vegetarian Tips I use daily.

During this continued economic uncertainty, many are struggling to get by; especially so many of those without jobs.

This makes frugal meal planning all the more important. First, I have a weekly thrifty food plan, or menu of what I want to eat written up for the next week.
I've found this keeps me from shopping for impulse items and allows me to be more organized.

I have my own vegetable garden which is huge in cutting down the costs of my frugal meals.

When I shop for produce, I avoid organic stores - too expensive. Vegetables are vegetables and I construct my menu based on what I see on sale at my local grocery store.
So take advantage of the sales.

I also get at least a meal or two a week from neighbors. They have many extra vegetables from their gardens that they give away; otherwise they'll go bad; so take advantage of this!
