A major component of wellness is eating the right foods but sticking to a healthy diet is not easy when the chocolate shake pictured on the menu jumps out and grabs you by the taste buds or when youre late getting home from work and slapping together a quick bologna sandwich or hamburger helper is easier than preparing a meal of brown rice, boiled beans, steamed vegetables, and whole wheat rolls.
If only there were healthy menus that were quick and easy and tasty. Well there are, but it takes a bit of planning to counteract the fast, processed foods when youre hungry and too tired to cook.
Planning a weekly menu and buying groceries according to that menu makes meal time less of a hassle and also makes sticking to a healthy diet easier.
When choosing healthy foods, one must remember to avoid highly processed foods and look for fresh fruits, veggies, and whole grains that are high in vitamins, minerals, and fiber while low in sugar, salt, trans fats, and saturated fats. If this seems like an overwhelming juggling act, there are classes available that teach how to read labels and shop with confidence as well as how to cook quick, tasty, and healthy meals.
Fitness director, Shana Ross offers grocery shopping tours in Houston with lessons in how to cut through the nutrition confusion in the grocery store and put together healthy meals and snacks. These tours are reasonably priced and conducted on chosen Saturdays. Shana also offers healthy cooking classes, though they cost a bit more, to help you learn how to simply and easily prepare nutritious and tasty meals. Several recipes such as Chicken and Veggie Brown Rice Pizza are included and every one gets a taste.
