Experts say you can eat healthily for £2.85 a day

With the cost-of-living crisis tightening purse strings across the UK, health and wellness experts say people can cut lunch costs by 72%, without compromising on nutritional value or taste. A new survey from Protein Works has revealed that almost half (46%) of Brits are spending £10 per day on breakfast, lunch and snacks, with 37% opting for a meal deal.

To encourage healthier and cheaper daytime meal choices, Protein Works has calculated a way for people to spend just £2.85 on breakfast, lunch and snacks to see them through until an evening meal - a 72% saving compared to the average £10 per day spend.

To charge batteries for the day ahead, overnight oats, protein porridges or a breakfast smoothie start at as little as 77p per portion. The slow-energy release makes for the perfect fuel throughout the day, plus they require minimal prep for anyone rushing out of the door in the morning.
