Stop struggling between health and savings, and pick up a bag of nutritious, budget-friendly pumpkin seeds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Cost:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0$0.30 per \u00bc-cup serving ($4.25 per pound).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Benefits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Pumpkin seeds\u2014or pepitas, as they\u2019re called when they\u2019re shelled\u2014pack a lot of health benefits for their little size. Aside from offering a high amount of manganese, just \u00bc cup of pepitas contains nearly 50 percent of your daily need for magnesium\u2014important for muscle, heart and bone health. That same serving size is high in heart-healthy fats and adds almost 10 grams of protein to your diet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Carrots &amp; Cauliflower<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15629\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagecarrots.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"595\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagecarrots.png 595w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagecarrots-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagecarrots-500x282.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a combined\u00a0r\u00e9sum\u00e9\u00a0that\u2019s pretty stunning, these two powerhouse veggies are vital when it comes to filling your plate and your wallet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Cost:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a00.20 to $0.50 per cup ($0.98 to $2.48 per pound).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Benefits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0One cup of carrots alone surpasses your daily need of vitamin A. Throw in the various antioxidants (beta-carotene being the most well-known, and a precursor to vitamin A), and you\u2019re already looking at one of the healthiest foods you can buy. Add a cup of cauliflower to up the ante. Just 1 cup contains 73 percent of your daily vitamin C needs; plus it\u2019s been shown to decrease the risk of various cancers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Pinto Beans<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15627\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagebeans.png\" alt=\"beans\" width=\"595\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagebeans.png 595w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagebeans-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagebeans-500x282.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether dried and cooked or used straight from the can, heart-healthy pinto beans are one of the cheapest protein sources you can buy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Cost:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0$0.04 per \u00bd-cup cooked serving from dried beans ($0.80 per pound dried beans) and $0.20 per \u00bd-cup serving from canned beans ($0.64 per pound canned beans).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Benefits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Not surprisingly, pinto beans are packed with fiber. Just \u00bd cup of cooked beans gives you more than 30 percent of your daily recommended intake for dietary fiber. Additionally, pinto beans contain high levels of folate, magnesium and potassium, all of which contribute to heart health. And, being high in protein and iron makes pinto beans a favorable plant-based alternative to red meat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Butternut Squash<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15628\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagebutternut.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"595\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagebutternut.png 595w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagebutternut-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagebutternut-500x282.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This hourglass-shaped fruit (yes, it\u2019s a fruit) has taken a backseat to summer squash for far too long. The butternut is a winter squash that offers more benefits and versatility than is often thought.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Cost:\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$0.40 per 1-cup serving ($1.31 per pound).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Benefits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Although some produce hide their nutrients, butternut squash isn\u2019t afraid to flaunt them. Its brightly colored orange flesh indicates the presence of beta-carotene, which we know to fight certain cancers and protect eye health. Beyond that, this gourd adds a healthy amount of fiber and vitamins A and C to your diet, which in combination contribute to a strong immune system, bone and tissue health and healthy blood sugar levels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Kale<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15631\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagekale.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"595\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagekale.png 595w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagekale-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagekale-500x282.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This once rare but now beloved veggie can be found on tables and menus everywhere. The popularity of this leafy green has caused prices to drop, and you should take advantage of its nutrition prowess.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Cost:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0$0.11 per 1-cup serving ($1.60 to $2.00 per pound).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Benefits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Kale contains more lutein, a type of carotenoid important for eye health, than any other produce. It\u2019s also high in manganese and vitamins A, C and K, all of which contribute to kale\u2019s health benefits\u2014such as lowering your risk of some cancers, reducing your risk of blood clots and boosting your bone and tissue health. Just 1 cup of loosely packed kale contains 20 to 25 percent of your daily vitamin C needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Frozen Edamame<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imageedamame.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"595\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imageedamame.png 595w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imageedamame-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imageedamame-500x282.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">High in fiber and protein and low in unhealthy fats, soybeans are an easy and healthy way to get more bang for your buck. Not many protein sources render as strong of a nutritional profile, which lands edamame on this list.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Cost:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0$0.34 per \u00bd-cup serving ($2.72 per pound) of frozen, shelled edamame.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Benefits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Edamame contains a long list of vitamins and minerals (some rarely heard of), with the most notable being iron, manganese, B vitamins and vitamin K. Additionally, edamame is a complete protein, which means it contains all of the nine essential amino acids, a rarity in plant protein sources.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Kiwifruit<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15632\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagekiwi.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"595\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagekiwi.png 595w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagekiwi-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagekiwi-500x282.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This little fruit packs flavor, nutrition and a gorgeous green hue inside an unusual fuzzy peel. Simply slice in half and scoop out flesh with a spoon, or peel and slice, or even eat it sliced with the peel on (wash it first, of course) for a quick, healthful snack.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Cost:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0$0.53 per fruit ($3.56 per pound).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Benefits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0An incredible source of vitamin C, kiwi is a good option when oranges become mundane. Just one kiwi serves up a hefty amount of dietary fiber and more than 30 percent of your daily needs for vitamin K. This small green fruit, speckled with tiny seeds, has been found to benefit cardiovascular health and respiratory problems such as asthma, shortness of breath and coughing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Marinara Sauce<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15633\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagemarinara.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"595\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagemarinara.png 595w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagemarinara-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/stage.boredmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Imagemarinara-500x282.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although it may be surprising to see a sauce on this list, marinara has earned its place. Made primarily of whole foods, including tomatoes and spices, marinara contains a long index of antioxidants. But be sure to check labels and look for marinara with the fewest grams of added sugars and sodium.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Cost:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0$0.32 per \u00bd-cup serving ($1.92 per 24-ounce jar).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Benefits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Tomatoes are naturally high in the antioxidant lycopene\u2014thought to have cancer-prevention benefits\u2014and when cooked, lycopene becomes more readily available to absorb.
