We’ve all heard the phrase ‘you are what you eat’, and while it may ring true, sometimes there just isn’t time in a mum’s busy schedule to ensure that every meal is a healthy one. This is where the magic of meal prepping comes into play - a method of preparing and cooking meals in bulk and in advance.
We all want to be around for as long as possible in order to see our children mature into fully-formed adults, and perhaps even have kids of their own. A healthy diet is fundamental to achieving this kind of longevity. It will ensure that not only will you live to see your grandchildren grow up, you will be sprightly enough to run around and play with them!
SAVING TIME AND MONEY
Time and money are the two most valuable commodities in the world, and while trying to raise a family it can seem like we don’t have enough of either! More often than not, things that save us time, cost us money, and things that save us money, cost us time. Meal prepping is one of the rare instances of something that can save up both time and money, while ensuring we stay healthy and consistent with our nutrition.
