A healthy
lifestyle starts with planning and cooking your food. This lets you know
what you're putting into your body. Knowing this will help you stay healthy.
When
planning your meal, the first thing to do is to look at recipes. Use different meals to make up your week. Have chicken on
Monday, then vegetarian on Tuesday. The next thing to do is make your grocery
list.
Your grocery list lists all the things you
need for your recipes. The next step will be to go shopping when you have your
list. Some of the things you will buy will be fresh foods. Others will be
pre-packaged. It's essential to look at the food
labels. Some brands will be better for you than others. For example, canned
foods are usually loaded with salt, so try to find ones that have the lowest
amount of salt. Also, make sure to check the expiration dates. Look at the back
for when the food will go wrong.
Now you
have your ingredients. The last step in meal planning is to store your food. You may also wish to
make all your meals ahead of time. You can then store them in the fridge or
freezer. You will learn about food storage and cooking a little later.
