We mention organic foods here on Slashfood quite a bit - how can we not when "organic" in the food world is about as trendy as the color yellow in fashion? The problem is, however, thaat like many things that become trendy. eating organic is expensive - it might be better for our bodies and better for the environment, but it's not something that everyone in the US can do.
Rebecca Blood has taken up the challenge of eating all organic on a food stamp budget as allocated by the state of Oregon. She's tracking herself by posting on her blog every day what she makes and eats for a month (obviously, eating organic and doing it on a budget means practically every meal has to be at home). The question for Rebecca wasn't whether she could stay within budget, but whether she would be able to eat well. So far, it looks like she's doing pretty well with things like Spaghetti with Zucchini and Basil (pictured above) and Baked Chilaquiles.
