The Essential 10

I know it might seem like a lot of tools to invest in when you're first getting into meal planning. However, investing in these kitchen essentials is going to save you time during your weekly meal prep. While these might be essential, it doesn't mean you need to buy them all at once. Start off with tools like the baking sheets, meat thermometer, and blender when you're brand new to the kitchen. These are going to help you prepare multiple meals, ensure your food is cooked to perfection, and reduce the time you're spending in the kitchen.

Struggling to find time to eat healthily? Well, I got the perfect solution to help you eat healthy even when you have NO TIME for meal prep! 

(In my Sophia Petrillo voice) ...

Picture this, Suriname, 2015 ... and I've just been volun-told that I'll be working on an overnight shift for the next 16 days in a row.  

Now that overnight shift did happen to fall over Christmas AND New Years, which meant OVERTIME pay!!!

(This was definitely raising the roof worthy!)

However, the con beyond not being able to see the light of day for the next 16 days was that I would need to get to work to plan out all my meals ahead of time. 

For one, this was before meal delivery services like UberEats and DoorDash were a thing. And, for two, I lived overseas at the time, in Suriname and there were very limited delivery options at the time. 

Since I was just starting to get into the groove of healthy eating and meal planning I didn't want the next two weeks of work...

Are you tired of trying and failing to maintain a healthy diet? Do you wish healthy eating could just be easy? If so, you've found the right place!

When I first started in 2015 to make the transition to a healthy diet, I am not ashamed to say that I didn't know the first thing about healthy eating. After years of hopping from one fad diet to another to maintain what I thought was a "healthy weight" in my mind, healthy eating meant eating foods that promoted weight loss. 

What didn't occur to me at the time was that my ability to make healthy food choices for my body had NOTHING to do with the weight that was on the scale. 

In fact, for years I maintained a "healthy weight," but my eating habits were crap. Most of my daily diet consisted of fast food, microwave meals, candy, and energy drinks. Very little of my daily diet included real, whole, minimally processed foods. 

So, no shade if your daily diet is looking like mine used to be.
