Tuesday Tip: Simple food for busy days

Tuesday Tip: Simple food for busy days 🥫

When you’re busy and stressed trying to decide what to eat can be a bit much, on top of that if you’re trying to lose weight/fat then trying to find something that’s lower calorie or fits your calories can be even harder. That’s when it’s easy to just grab a take away or a high calorie snack/meal – which then doesn’t align with your weight loss goals.

Many people are under the impression that you MUST plan and prep your meals ahead and they MUST all be home cooked masterpieces if you want to lose weight. The reality is they don’t need to be.

Make your life easier and take the pressure off. There are loads of super simple, convenient options you can keep in your cupboards/freezer for days like that. You don’t need complicated, organic, home made meals for weight loss. What you do need are things you can easily put together into a meal when you’re busy and tired. If having these things means you can stick to your calories and get nutrients in then that’s perfect!

There’s lots of options but some of the basics include:

⁃ frozen veggies

⁃ Pre-Cooked meat

⁃ Eggs

⁃ Jacket potatoes

⁃ Tinned fish (tuna, mackerel etc)

⁃ Bread (beans on toast or eggs on toast – perfect quick meal)

⁃ Canned veg (baked beans, sweetcorn etc etc)

⁃ Microwave rice

⁃ Tinned fruit

⁃ Tinned soup

⁃ Frozen veggie protein products

So stock up on some of these essentials and then next time you’re too tired to cook you’ve got some easy options on hand

Happy Tuesday 🤗xx
