What are some easy, healthful meals for hard-working professionals?
It's difficult in the day of today's professionals especially when we as women try to go home and cook for our family. And I don't know about you, but I'm constantly thinking in the morning about what am I going to make for dinner, how am I going to feed everyone and how can I squeeze that into a reasonable amount of time without cooking from scratch for three hours. The really great thing about today's society is we have so much at our disposal in terms of healthy choices. And so what I would recommend is places like Whole Foods, Crystal Farms, your local supermarket, whatever it is. I like to stop at Whole Foods and maybe pick up salmon. I'll buy the meat that's already been prepared or that you just have to pop in the oven and then I'll go home and make side dishes like a salad or some fresh vegetables. I like to pair chicken or fish, not so much beef and pork, but chicken or fish with a nice green vegetable and a salad and maybe a little bit of brown rice or something like that. It's easy, it's quick and if the main dish is prepared for you, it's tasteful and it's quick to do or you can spend a weekend and maybe make a baking sheet full of chicken breasts that have been seasoned and put into ziplock bags for the week so that during the week if you're only cooking for one or two of you or in today's society where our families have different schedules, your kids come home later, whatever it is, you take a few of those chicken breasts out, you're able to pop the vegetables in the microwave or put them in the frying pan with a little olive oil and you're done.
