Easy Meal Ideas
Life isn’t easy when you’re staring down a busy work week on a limited lunch time budget. So, make lunches for the week all at once! Need some ideas? Here’s a couple:
Grab some Never Any! chicken sausage and sauté it with some fresh produce like bell peppers and onions, along with some cooked pasta. Season it up, portion it out and, boom, efficient grocery shopping turns into efficient meal prepping.
Need something even easier? How about a quinoa bowl, where you can mix and match protein, veggies and seasoning to complement your cooked quinoa. Have leftover salmon? There’s a meal! Snapped up pre-cooked chicken slices? There’s another lunch! Want to skip the meat? Add some cooked pinto beans and you have yourself halfway to a burrito bowl!

How to eat healthy?
There are many small changes that you can make to eat healthier. First, it’s important to stay hydrated throughout the day. Reach for water instead of sugary drinks like pop or soda.

A healthy diet will vary person to person based on their age, height, weight, sex, activity level and nutritional needs. According to the USDA, each person should customize their diet to include nutrient-dense food and beverages that reflect their personal preferences and are within their budget. A healthy diet is one that focuses on meeting food group needs with nutrient-dense foods that stay within calorie limits. It’s best to limit processed foods, especially those that are high in sugars, sodium and saturated fats. Keep in mind portion size and try to choose a variety of foods from each food group to incorporate within your diet. Always talk to your dietician or doctor to see what foods best fit your specific dietary needs.
How to read nutritional information?
Reading nutritional information on product labels helps determine if a certain product meets your nutritional needs and dietary preferences. Some key information you’ll want to look for is the serving size, calories, nutrients and the % Daily Value (%DV). Nutritional information can be used to compare products so that you can select the best option for you and your family.
