Today I awoke with one goal: plan meals.
I use a few sites* to find ideas and inspiration to not just eat the same old things. Sometimes you need help sparking your brain and steering away from the easy food ruts (i.e. Chipotle and Subway.)
I’m also trying to get away from the frozen meals for lunch. You know, in a convenient box, plastic, ice crystals, NOT FILLING. Yep. A little time in the kitchen and I can get rid of those things in favor of more balanced, tastier, more filling meals.
Anyway, I’m going to share a secret with you: I can cook. When I was a little girl I used to make concoctions in the kitchen. I helped my mom from an early age. When we were still getting our footing in KC after leaving Oregon, I used to whip up delicacies like souffle. Really, it was whipping eggs and tossing in some cheese and meat because eggs were cheap and we didn’t have much money, but I felt useful.
So, here’s my first little “cookbook” on Spark People!
