Pork Chops and Canned Corn are "healthy" right?

Question

I'm pregnant and have 2 kids. money's tight. we get food stamps.  I have picky eaters. apose to maccheese or other starchy noodles like spaghetti. is pork chops and corn semi healthy? 
 it's about 5$ for 4 pork chops and 1$ for canned corn. it's pretty cheap And it's healthy-ish right? 
any cheap meal ideas appreciated 
 😑🙄😶

Answer

Meat is super expensive. Beans, nuts, cheese...those are all cheaper if you want protein. 
And corn is so sweet, it really doesn't have much nutritional value. If you need to buy canned veggies, pick others. 
Black beans are cheap, as are bananas. Go from there?

Answer

Corn is definitely not healthy. It has virtually zero nutritional value. Green veggies are always a better choice

Answer

You’re doing a great job mumma! You’re kids are fed and they sound like they are happy and healthy so that’s all that matters. They have a whole lifetime to get more variety in their diets. I haven’t met a single child that loves to eat vegetables but as adults we are all eating them! 🤷🏻‍♀️ so worry about it later.

Answer

Since it’s for kids I would say that’s fine! Just maybe green beans next time 😊👍🏻 
I’m glad your trying, and being honest! Nobody is perfect and feeding kids is hard!

Answer

My husband and I just did meal prep recently and we did 30 dinners (feeding 4) for less than $300. All on the healthier side and made in a crock pot. And ALL ingredients from costco

Answer

You can get 2-3 times as much corn frozen from Walmart than from a can. Canned corn is very salty and a lot of the weight is water. Pork chops are fine but just that and corn probably isn't going to be filling. Pasta or rice is fine and completely healthy in a normal portion. Use smaller amounts of meat and sub some beans in for protein to save money and stretch out the meat.
