It Is Okay Not To Cook Dinner For Your Kids

March 26, by Shellie Wilson. 1 Comment

It Is Okay Not To Cook Dinner For Your Kids! It took me a long time to realize one of my biggest daily burnouts was trying to think of healthy meals to feed my kids. At the end of the day, I am exhausted, and making good food choices was zapping the life out of me.

So we tried lots of different solutions, from meal boxes to having dedicated “take away” nights, especially on those nights when there was sports training. But as the kids became teenagers, takeaway food wasn’t filling their empty stomachs and they were hungry when they came in from school, hungry when they finished training, and hungry before bed. Which meant I was cooking more than ever before.

I was fighting a losing battle because I felt obligated to cook for my kids, it was really having a huge impact on my life and most of all their lives and their nutrition. I was trying to do my best by feeding them, but I was feeding them quick and easy crap!

We needed, I needed a solution.  That is when I came across these Proper good meals. They are nutritional and hearty and the thing I love the most is they do not require refrigeration. Why is that important? Well it means I can pop them out on the kitchen counter to remind me, teen, to eat them, I can throw them into the training bag for them to heat at training camp and we can take them camping, store them in the cupboard for isolation weeks too.

I am also doing the Keto diet, but my family is not, so this allows me to have my own Keto-ready-made meal for myself and they can choose what meals they like the best.  The Keto diet is really working for me and having the convenience of these 90 seconds meals really helps me to make the right choices.   They also have Low sodium, plant-based, gluten-free and Dairy free meals.

I highly recommend the Bundle box to try everything out and then work from there, they have lots of discounts including medical, bulk buy and subscriptions.

Don’t let meal planning and cooking become a source of burnout in your life. Take care of yourself and your family with easy and nutritious meal options.

What food items should you pack for your camping trip??

It’s important to bring along the right food items to ensure you have a nourishing and enjoyable experience. Whether you’re camping for a weekend or an extended period of time, having the right food items on hand can make all the difference in terms of keeping you full, satisfied, and energized. In this article, we’ll go over some of the must-have food items to pack for your next camping trip.

It’s important to bring along enough non-perishable food items to sustain you throughout your trip. This might include items such as trail mix, dried fruit, nuts, and crackers, which are all easy to transport and store and provide a quick and easy source of energy and nutrition. Pack these items in resealable containers or plastic bags to keep them fresh and to help conserve space in your pack.

Another essential food item to bring along on your camping trip is a good supply of fresh fruit and vegetables. These items provide important vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that are essential for good health and energy. Apples, bananas, berries, carrots, and snap peas are all great options, as they are easy to transport and are less likely to spoil quickly.

For meals, you’ll want to bring along a good supply of carbohydrates and protein sources, such as pasta, rice, beans, and dried or canned meat or fish. These items can be prepared over a campfire or stove and will help keep you full and satisfied throughout the day. Don’t forget to also bring along cooking utensils and a portable stove or campfire setup if necessary, so that you can prepare meals easily and efficiently.

Finally, it’s important to bring along a good supply of beverages, both for hydration and for enjoyment. Pack a variety of drinks, such as water, juice, and sports drinks, to ensure you stay hydrated throughout your trip. And if you enjoy a hot beverage in the morning or evening, bring along some coffee or tea, as well as a portable coffee maker or kettle, so that you can enjoy a warm drink no matter where you are.
