I spent much of yesterday preparing yummy healthy food. I've found it's helpful to know exactly what you're having for meals, and effective to have the same thing for each breakfast and lunch. So for breakfast I made up two weeks worth of oatmeal baggies, by weight. They have protein powder, oatmeal, raisins, a little brown sugar, and cinnamon. I didn't have enough nuts but I usually add a half serving of walnuts or almonds as well, and have it with a piece of fruit. For lunch I made four kinds of soup (butternut squash, sweet potato peanut, lentil, and borscht) and divided them into one cup baggies. I freeze them flat and they stack nicely in the freezer. With this I'll have a simple spinach salad. For afternoon snack I cut some veggies into sticks and put them into individual baggies. I'll add a half serving of nuts or a cheese stick. Dinner will vary but I prepared a nice healthy menu.
The only thing I don't love is all the plastic I'm using. I have about a dozen reusable baggies, but not nearly enough. What's the phrase? Don't let the need for perfection keep you from good enough. Something like that.
Getting better all the time!
