Q. I don't even know where to start. I mostly lived off junk food. I now realize how bad it is and want to change. The healthy food to make at home seems so overwhelming in cookbooks and too much time and complicated for a person that never cooked.
I like to take bay steps. Any suggestions? also for snacks too?

A. Fruit Salad. You could do a lott with fruit and animal cracker, cut up the fruit into cubes and crush some animal cracker on top and put some raisins or something on top.
Craisins or any other fried fruit.
Apple Slices dipped in caramel (Or just plain apple slices)
Pudding cups/Fruit cups
Rice Krispie Bars
Graham Cracker Sandwich with jelly filling
Celery with peanut butter on top, sprinkled with raisins. Call this ants on a log!
Veggie Pizza
Real Fruit Fat Free Popsicles
Trail Mix
Apple Sauce
Yogurt with chopped fruit in it
Chex Mix
Air-popped popcorn with little or no butter
Wheat Thins
Budget Yet Healthy Dinner Ideas:
Ground Beef. You can either cook it with elbow macaroni & spaghetti sauce or you can cook it with alfredo pasta and Hunts gravy (99 cents only). It's delicious. Also, goes well with texas toast.
Broiled Pork Chops. You'll want to have them with steamed carrots and mashed potatoes.
Ground Chicken. I like to cook Ground Chicken with my Yellow Rice (you can buy Goya yellow rice mix for 99 cents) and throw it in the rice and add some corn for a more mexican-style dish.
Meatloaf! You can make it with ground turkey or extra lean ground beef. You can serve with a small serving of mashed potatoes and some peas.
Lean cut of beef with a baked potato and steamed broccoli.
Vegetable Soup.
Burgers (made with extra lean beef) with vegetarian baked beans and Dole Cole Slaw (from the bag).
Grilled Chicken served with peas & white rice.
Pasta Salad (cooked macaroni, add green onions, green and red peppers, pickles, olives (or any vegetable you may like) chopped up of course and for the dressing add zesty italian dressing to taste)
You can also cut the grilled chicken in cubes and add it to a salad.
Craisins or any other fried fruit.
