Our resident food expert Casey (not pictured) knocked it out of the park last night!
We got answers to our questions!
How can I eat well while on a budget? What are some simple ways to ensure my meal includes healthy measures of protein, carbohydrates and fat? Can you provide me recommendations for prepping meals that can be served multiple ways, and be used for both lunch at work, and a quick, yummy dinner?
We prepped Waldorf , chicken curry , egg , tuna base recipes that can be used in either salad or sandwiches. And, no one could resist a tasty BLAT (bacon, lettuce, avocado, tomato), which, sans bread, makes a very healthy salad, as well.
It was a lot to prepare, but we did it in an hour! How, you might ask? “Mise en place”. Organizing and arranging the related ingredients, utensils, bowls and measuring cups, etc. This might be the best way to eliminate stress, confusion and kitchen-catastrophes when cooking! Makes for quicker, more methodical clean-up, as well.
So we prepped, created and then stored! Because it was off for another great evening at the gym. And when we returned, we had plenty of healthy food to eat – making it much easier to resist unhealthy urges for snacks and junk food! We also welcomed yet another member to our group! Success and happiness motivates!
