weekly budget for healthy home made food?

I'm trying to figure out how to eat well without spending too much. Any advice on food choices or recipe ideas?

I do make decision which are not cost based.CAGE FREE CHICKEN,EGGS,  HORMONE FREE MEAT

I go to the farmer's market and buy fruit vegs and dairy but it's $$$

to the bio coop to buy dry bulk items (quinoa, nuts, brown rice, dried fruits, oatmeal)

I need help getting the cost down. I'm in france right now and even being very attentive and careful,  it's very pricey. I wanted to see how much this kind of eating costs elsewhere. I don't buy anything pre packages but I will buy some canned veg (tomatos) and frozen peas, broccoli. Here, apples cost 3 euros per kilo which is about $1 per, at least. yikes.

I live in Korea and compared to the US, I think produce costs are very high. I just paid $7 for two avocados today. One normal sized bunch of bananas is about $5. Unfortunately for me, there are no canned or frozen options for produce either so I'm just forced to buy it. 

My advice is find what is the cheapest produce based on the season and plan your meals around that. 

I mix the fresh produce with beans and brown rice - basically turn whatever is in season and cheapest into a sort of casserole - I bake a large pans and freeze them. It really stretches things out, and brown rice and beans add some additional protein and fiber.

I also use a lot of pulses (legumes) like beans, lentils and chickpeas in my cooking and tend to cook vegetarian quite often as a result.   Where I am (UK) a 500g pack of dried beans or chickpeas is around 75p-£1.00 which is near a euro as makes no difference.  And 500g yields about 1.3kgs of cooked beans which is a huge amount of very filling, nutritious protein!

In eastern Europe the food is not expensive but the salaries are also smallish. 1 kg of apples is currently 1$, plums less than 1$, 1 kg of chicken breast about 5$, 1/2kg chicken livers 1$, 1kg of potatoes 0.3$, grapes 0.3$, bananas 1$, basmati rice 2$, beans 2$, 1 liter of 1.5% fat milk less than 1$. Of course these are the prices in peripheral markets and hipermarkets, a normal neighbourhood store would sell them at double or triple the price.

My weekly budget is around 30-40$ and includes both the food and higiene products. I feel really lucky because fruit and veggies are cheap, but clothes and home appliances for example are expensive.
