Beans, rice, other grains, seasonal or frozen fruits and vegetables, canned tuna or ground pork.
On a per-meal basis, meals made from the above are going to be cheaper than most other food you can get. Even if you can only afford absolute trash, a pot of rice and beans is healthier and cheaper than a box of KD.
Healthier eating is achievable on any budget and can absolutely benefit both your mental (and obviously physical) health.
