Welcome to the first HEALTHY EATING MADE EASY newsletter. I hear so often from clients that they know what to eat, and there's no shortage of information out there! However, even with the best intentions we often fail to implement this knowledge.
My aim is to help you take action, small steps at a time with the end result being healthy eating habits for life.
The HEALTHY EATING MADE EASY newsletter will include:
- Evidence based nutrition recommendations
- Cooking tips
- Meal prep ideas
- Healthy, tasty recipes
- Product reviews
All in bite size pieces to avoid information overload.
The newsletter will be sent out every two weeks on a Wednesday. If this isn't for you I'll understand if you unsubscribe. Or if you think a friend may find this newsletter useful feel free to share.
So let's get started....
A simple way to get more veggies in your day...
Before you start making dinner I recommend you chop up some veggie sticks and place on your kitchen bench.
As your household wander in asking 'when's dinner' you have something healthy for them to nibble on. They're at their hungriest at this time and you'll be surprised how they gobble them up! Trust me. It will also stop you reaching for cheese and crackers or other unhealthy snacks.
Celery, cucumber, carrots, capsicum, cherry tomatoes, green beans all work well. You can make a batch and store in the fridge for a couple of days. I know this isn't 'earth shattering' but it's a such a simple way to increase veggies.
Eating plenty of vegetables is one of the easiest ways to improve health and reduce risk of disease.
Healthy dips....
Veggie sticks and dips are also a healthy option for entertaining. I try to avoid store bought dips as they tend to be made with inflammatory oils. You'll find an easy, healthy hummus recipe below, as well as my recommended brands of hummus.
I hope to make your healthy eating easy and most importantly enjoyable. If you have any topics you'd like me to cover or feedback just reply here.
Thank you for sharing my healthy love of food.
