Drink more water
EAT SEASONALLY Keep a produce calendar handy so you know what to look for. This month: root veg, kale, and citrus. WHY? In-season produce is fresher, tastier, and usually less expensive.
Stay hydrated by infusing your water with citrus slices, herbs, berries, or cucumber. WHY? Making water more interesting will encourage you to drink up.
PACK YOUR SNACKS Opt for high-fiber and protein snacks like hummus and pretzels or apples and peanut butter. WHY? Unlike sugar and empty carbs, fiber and protein will keep you full.
EAT BREAKFAST MORE OFTEN Stock up on on-the-go options: Egg muffins in the freezer, instant oatmeal in the pantry, and a bowl of fruit on the counter. WHY? The morning rush won’t be an excuse for skipping this important meal.
TRY A WHOLE-GRAIN SWAP FOR PASTA AND BREAD Once in a while (say every other week) replace regular pasta and bread with a whole-grain alternative. WHY? These complex carbs will help you feel full. Look for whole wheat, whole-grain, and multigrain alternatives.
MAKE A SHOPPING LIST Check your fridge, freezer, and pantry before making a list. Organize your list based on the layout of your store. WHY? You’ll save time at the store and won’t accidentally buy what you already have.
TRY A PLANT-BASED SWAP FOR MEAT Try a meatless version of a weeknight staple like burgers, pizza, or pasta. WHY? You’ll get more nutrients into your meals by swapping meat for plant-based options.
STOCK YOUR FREEZER Keep staples like frozen meatballs or chicken tenders and steam-in- bag veggies for last-minute meals. WHY? A fully stocked freezer is better than takeout. You’ll save money and get dinner on the table even on busy weeknights.
Reduce your food waste
Use overripe fruit in smoothies and muffins. Turn leftover veggies into stir-fries and soups. WHY? Turning leftover produce into nutrient-dense meals is a win-win for your wallet and your health.
