So I have been very, very, very bad at my eating habits, no, I haven't gone back to eating meat, but my nutritional intake has been horrible. I have not been eating well and am really starting to feel it. Yesterday was a bad day for feeling "out of sorts". I felt like I do when I take cold medication, just not right. So now it's time to get back in the swing of things. With all the moving, packing, unpacking we ate alot of packaged foods, convinient foods and not enough fruits and vegetables. Although, I always make sure the kids have enough fruits and vegetables, why doesn' that go for me too? Hmmmm! Also our grocery bill because of all the convinient foods was out of control.
I am still struggling to make dinners for the meat eaters and for myself. It ends up being alot of pots and pans, more dishes and the dishwasher going every night. I had heard of a cookbook "Flexitarian Cooking", the cookbook was how to make two meals, one meat and the other vegetarian using the same ingredients. I might see if the library has a copy and give it a try. Maybe this will give me some ideas to help with the two dish meals.
I also need to stop skipping breakfast, although, I drill into the kids the importance of breakfast, most mornings I am too busy getting lunches ready, making sure they are eating to bother making my own breakfast. I also need to start taking my vitamins again, I am prone to having love iron, so I need to make sure I take extra.
I would love any suggestions from anyone with a two meal families, how they juggle dinnertime.
