Set yourself up for SUCCESS!

In order to choose healthy, you have to SET YOURSELF UP FOR SUCCESS! That is, be prepared when it comes to your freezer, fridge and pantry. You must keep things at the ready to grab for your meal times, otherwise that bag of chips is going to look a whole lot easier to get to! Great snacks in the pantry that are wonderful to grab are nuts, dried fruits, raisins, trail mix, whole grain crackers, multigrain cereals, and trail mix. On the weekends (or whenever is your best free day) make a big batch of soup and freeze in individual containers for a quick zap in the microwave from the freezer. Whole wheat pastas freeze well, too! And of course in your fridge, have fruits and veggies cut and ready to grab as soon as you come home from the grocery store for easy access. Grill or broil chicken for the week and have in a tupperware chopped, to quickly add to salads, canned soups, or pasta. Hard boiled eggs at the ready are another quick add on to your favorite meals, and of course cooking a big batch of brown rice or quinoa is an additional quick way to grab and go and make a meal fast! Sooooo what have we learned here? BE PREPARED/Set yourself up for SUCCESS!
