Cooking your own food is one of the best ways to eat healthy. Restaurant food often has hidden sugar or sodium. It’s important to know what you are putting into your body.
My mantra for cooking is: be prepared! I like to look through my cookbooks or blogs and choose recipes for the week as I make my shopping list. It makes shopping easier and quicker, and it takes out the guess work of “what am I going to make for dinner?” each night.
Whenever I cook, I always make extra! It’s nice to have leftovers on hand for easy lunches throughout the week.
Here are some of my favorite blogs with recipes. I personally eat gluten free but these are all easy to adjust to be gluten free or dairy free. I also love easy recipes such as one pot meals or not a ton of ingredients and these all are great for that.
