Eating Healthy During This Shelter in Place
Sometimes lists aren’t in perfect tens but Julia Belluz from Vox summed up how to “eat healthily.” I found this article particularly helpful during this shelter in place but I’ll let you be the judge.
Keep your pantry stocked
Consider the nutritional bang for your buck
Meat should be a rare treat — and when you buy it, look for tough cuts
Buy in bulk
Cook in bulk
Don't shy away from frozen fruits and vegetables
Never buy salad dressing
Make coffee or tea at home
Season your food so that it actually tastes good
Replace soda and juice with water
Don't be scared of expiration dates or food that looks less than perfect
For those that prefer video, check out down below. I’ll say that I agree with the meat being a rare treat but if it is, I’m not in favor of the tough cuts and rather treat myself to some Prime Grade. And to dive even further into it, I’m not necessarily into cooking in bulk either since I tend to get tired of similar flavors over and over again but the rest, I’m all in! Oh, and don’t forget to add in a workout here and there. At least 3-4 times a week should help out those endorphins!
