What's For Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Snacks? A lot more meals are being cooked at home these days. Many schools throughout the U.S. are closed and there's a good possibility classrooms will be at the kitchen table for the remainder of the school year. Whether you're a homeschool family already or have recently become one, having children at home means the kitchen is always open. Hobbits...and children...eat a LOT of food! This may sound familiar: Breakfast, Second Breakfast, Elevenses, Luncheon, Afternoon Tea, Dinner, and Supper. More meals at home means more time devoted to meal prep. It can easily become overwhelming. Here are a few tips to help maintain food sanity: 1. Get organized! Have a meal plan each week. It will help with shopping and you'll free up some head space. 2. Freezer meals are great for efficiency. Cook extra today, freeze for a meal next week or the week after. 3. Have littles help with meal preparation. This takes some patience, but teaching a child to cook makes for independence later. They feel useful when helping and more connected to the meal. 4. Have healthy snacks prepped in advance. Carrots, meat sticks, celery, cheese, liverwurst, meatballs, all make quick, healthy snacks. 5. Heat & Serve meals help with particularly stressful days and offers a break from kitchen time. US Wellness offers a full line of all-natural foods, loaded with nutrients and ready to heat and serve. One or two heat & serve days a week can go a long way toward maintaining food sanity. 6. Make use of resources. Our Discover Blog and Pinterest page is loaded with ideas for quick and easy meals that are healthy and tasty. Most of our Past Featured Chefs maintain a recipe section on their websites that can be extremely useful especially when ideas are running thin. Discount Code Ends Tonight!
