It’s too easy for me to slip into fast/convenient meals over healthy, especially when it’s all they want anyway. This video gave me some great motivation and inspiration. (I so wish you were my neighbor so I could go work out with you and you could whip me into shape! 😂) I’ve got to do something for myself before it literally kills me.

    You mention not liking mushrooms partly because of texture. Try buying dried mushrooms and grinding them like pepper they add a ton of flavor and protein plus many other health benefits depending on the mushroom. I am not a big fan of the " earlobe" texture either but love dried and powdered mushrooms.

      We’re retired so I really don’t have to meal prep, but some nights I let the hubster “cook” by pulling out a pre-made chicken spaghetti casserole or lasagna! Convenient to do at least part of the work in advance (precook hamburger or chicken). I also dehydrate bell peppers, green onions and potato slices for soups and casseroles and it saves time chopping.

    Christine, have you tried baking the sweet potatoes whole? They come out creamy and deeper in flavor, no need for salt or fat. I line the bottom rack with foil, preheat the oven to 425, throw them whole on the top rack, and bake for 30-40 minutes (until an air pocket appears between the flesh and skin when I press on one with my finger). Turn down the heat to 350 and roast 30-40 more minutes until a fork goes through the center easily. I can do a huge bag of costco sweet potatoes this way and then I scoop, portion and freeze them. It's my favorite with scrambled eggs!
