LUXURY FOR LESS GUIDE: Better Than Fast Food
We are really good at making sure we make healthy choices for our kids. But when it comes to our own health as a Mom, are we taking care of ourselves? As Moms, the bigger the kids get, the busier the schedule is! Sometimes while we are out running errands and taking our kids to the next thing…we forget to take a moment to eat. Before we turn into the “hangry” Mom, sometimes we just grab something through a drive thru to just get some food in our bellies. While this might be a welcomed occasional idea in a pinch, we need to take care of ourselves too! If we pack healthy snack for our kids, why not for us too?
Here is my simple trick to having something healthy on hand to help ourselves with healthier options. It also helps save more money in the long run too!
Tip: Prepare healthy snacks in small grab and go containers for the week.
Pick a “prep” day where you can spend a little time preparing healthy snacks to go for the week.
Next, prepare your “to go” snack! I like to cut up veggies like carrots and cucumbers and dip them in my favorite sauce from Costco.
These are my favorite snack containers to use! They stack easily in the fridge, keep well for the week, and hold just the right amount of food to take with you on the go.
These sauce containers are so stylish, cute, and functional! They are the perfect size for dipping sauces!
Make as many as you think you will need for the week. Snap the lids on, store them in the fridge and you are ready to be on the go with a healthier choice that’s better than fast food!
For how much we care for our kids, it’s just as important that we care for ourselves too! With a little prep and planning ahead, eating healthy for the week for yourself can be as simple as that!
