Easy And Healthy Recipes For The Whole Family

By Linda Moore


Coming back from the office and still having to managing your housework or the children is hard work. In addition to this, you still have to come up with dinner. Children need to eat a meal that is healthy and this is not always easy to make. Vegetables take a long time to prepare, and this can be exhausting. However, there are easy and healthy recipes that are available which everyone will appreciate.

Things like pasta, stir fries, salads and ready prepared vegetables can be made in no time at all. When you plan ahead on a weekly basis, thing will go smoothly. You have to know what you are going to have for dinner, otherwise you may not have the ingredients available. You also have to plan something with a little variety because this makes it more interesting.

Pastas can be made to be very interesting and tasty, while low in calorie content at the same time. People turn to tomato sauce, olive oil and pesto and Greek yogurt as a substitute. Adding vegetables and lean meats into the dish can be tasty. Flavoring this with herbs can also make a difference. There are things you can buy in the stores that can make a big difference.

A stir fry is one of the easiest dishes to make. However, many people are put off by the amount of chopping and dicing. Fortunately, this can be done for you. You can buy a packet of vegetables. You can also prepare this on the weekend, but most people want to relax at this time.

Roasted vegetables are also easy to make. These come already prepared. You just need to pop these in the oven, add a little olive oil and mix them up with the pasta. You can even mix in some pesto. If you want to add a little protein, you can add some chicken or some beef. Shrimps also work very well in pasta and there is not a lot of preparation involved.

Minestrone can also be easy to make because the soup doesn't have to cook away for hours and hours. The spaghetti will help thicken up the dish. The tomato that you use will also add bulk. You can use a variety of vegetables which are already prepared and this leaves you with less to do. Minestrone is always tasty.

Always have supplies ready available. It means you don't have to run to the store at the last minute. When you are tired you don't particularly want to do your grocery shopping after you have been shopping all day. You need to know what you are going to be cooking.

A one pot meal of rice mixed with chicken and vegetables, mixed in with a low fat sauce can work very well. This can be served with a lot of different vegetables. When you have mixed everything together, simply place the pan in the oven. It is a good idea to have the right equipment because this will save you a lot of frustrations at the end of the day as well.
