Have you ever been in a rush to get supper on the table and cracked a box of mac n cheese or pulled a pizza out of the freezer, and thought, well this isn’t really what I wanted to serve my family, but it is what it is. I just don’t have the time or the bandwidth to do something different. And I get it — life is busy, and convenience foods promise to make things easier. But here’s the thing, a lot of those “shortcuts” actually cost us more money, they fill our kitchens with ingredients we can’t even pronounce, and leave us with a less satisfying version of what they could have been. But, if you are looking for easy ways to feed your kids foods that they enjoy eating, that are actually good for them. There is a better way. Today, I want to share 7 convenience foods you can stop buying and start making at home, even if you feel like you are too busy. These are simple swaps, super kid-friendly, budget-friendly staples that will save you money, taste better, and give you that peace of mind that comes from knowing exactly what’s in your food. I think sometimes the biggest barrier to providing healthy food for our family is ourselves. We tell ourselves we don’t have enough time, that it’s too complicated or too much when we have little kids, but it can actually be more manageable than what you realize. I hope this episode shifts your perspective on buying these 7 common convenience foods and easy ways you can make them at home instead.
