CheapHealthyFood
This is a place to share ways to eat inexpensively - whether that's with recipes, finding coupons, or preservation techniques like freezing or pickling.
PLEASE NOTE: What is considered "healthy" or "cheap"? This will differ for every person. Please take this into consideration when reading and commenting.
All nutrition suggestions/advice should be taken with a grain of salt, as it's best to consult with a medical professional and/or reflect on your own personal eating habits and budget prior to taking advice from friendly strangers on the internet.
Diet- or budget-shaming will not be tolerated. Some people may prefer organic food, others may have food intolerances, some may be vegan, vegetarian, or keto.
Bottom line: be kind, considerate, and aware of advice from strangers on the internet.
Thank you!

This is what I used and I’d highly recommend. I bought a crock from them and fed it per instructions roughly once a week. It made very tasty bread.

Edit: I didn’t look at what community I was in, so ordering it online might not be terribly cheap. If you wanted to go the free route, a local bakery might work as well.
Ah thank you so much! I didn't realize you could buy it online, that definitely makes it more convenient!
