What if someone doesn’t want to spend an entire day (like Sunday) prepping ingredients?
How do you keep variety without meal planning/prepping getting too complicated?

What do you say to the person who says healthy food “costs too much”?
Any tips for making groceries stretch and last as long as possible?
Where do you save and where do you splurge?
