Wow! Were you on the call? Shelley, the founder of One Roast Vegetable, was not only a ton of fun to interview but, she provided us with a ton of ideas and tips. Here are just a few of them.... 

 

- Cooking at home is not only cost effective but, it allows you greater control over what you are eating (and what is in your food) and with a little practice, it even tastes better!

 

- Cooking at home does not have to be time consuming. With a little bit of planning, cooking at home can be quick, simple and easy 

 

- Meal planning is critical to saving time and saving money on food. Look and see what you already have in your cupboards. Shop with a list rather than, buying what you see when shopping. Resist the "stocking up" mentality.

 

- Having basic cooking skills makes your food taste better and makes it easier to prepare vegetables as part of your meals.

 

- Would you allow your kids to ride in the car without their car seat? Veggies are just as important! It is vital that your kid eats sufficient amounts of veggies.

 

- Allow kids to take part in food preparation with you, make veggies fun, and add variety!

 

- Put up a weekly food menu for the kids and get them excited about the upcoming meals.

 

- Make it a rule to have a fruit or vegetable with every meal and snack.

 

- Put out a fruit and vegetable tray at 5:00pm when the kids are hungry but dinner is not ready yet.

 

Make sure you listen to the interview to hear Shelley's wonderful recipe ideas!!
