Reduce the "What's for Dinner" Stress!

It's the start of the work week some of may be thinking about our upcoming work week and getting ready for this week’s meetings & activities (for us or our kids); plus our endless tasks list (personal and work).

Have you taken the time to plan your dinner meals for the week? Or are you planning on skidding by the seat of your pants – or the convenient drive-thru? Are they really that convenient? Isn’t it just as easy to defrost some chicken breast today and roast it in the oven tomorrow for 30 minutes? Add a salad with that and you have a nice, healthy meal.

In speaking with others, and some research I’ve done, I’ve noticed that ‘dinner time’ is falling by the wayside for other activities. My newest ‘mission’ is to get families back to the dinner table. It’s easier than you think, and healthier, to make home-cooked meals than to pick up fast food that’s loaded with fat & calories.

I’d like to start this weekly blog for all of you who care about your bodies, and want to eat healthier and consistently eat together as a family. Don’t miss-understand me, I am not a ‘health freak’. I love a good chocolate chip cookie like everyone else. --

I am a woman who cares about the types of foods I put into my body, and the foods I feed my family. My parents and grandparents have a history of diabetes, Alzheimer’s and high-blood pressure – not a good sign for my future if I don’t take care of myself. I’d like to fight against that by feeding my body good food, and nourishing my soul with family time around the dinner table. It doesn’t have to be gourmet to be good for you. Let’s keep it simple.

Join me as I work on sharing quick and easy recipes and provide you easy resources for planning your dinners.

Let’s start with quick, easy & healthy recipes you’d like to share. Post them for us here!
