Chapter 59 Chapter Five Your Health Five Seven Simplify Your Eating Habits

When it comes to simplifying your diet, I have to admit that what I call gourmet is just a sandwich with peanut butter and jelly.I know that my idea of ​​simplifying the diet cannot be accepted by those gourmets.But when we started to simplify our lives, I decided to cut my cooking time by at least half.Now, my cooking time is only ten minutes at most.I mean, if the food we love is just nachos with dipping sauce, why am I spending so much time in the kitchen? In addition to reducing the cooking time by half, there are two more important points to simplify eating habits: One, even if I do have to prepare an unnecessary banquet meal, I choose healthy and nutritious meals.For us, that means meals that include fresh fruit, vegetables and grains.

Second, I want my meals to be low in calories, fat and cholesterol.Furthermore, it is best to have fresh vegetables and fruits, and try to keep them as original as possible. The fruits are not added, the frosting is stirred, and the vegetables are not added with gravy or cheese.In doing so, the amount of meat, especially red meat, is cut in half. Also, I want to completely cut down on the time wasted handling the food process. Now, our meal menu is as follows: Breakfast: Freshly squeezed orange juice and juices in season, homemade oatmeal muffins. Lunch: fresh fruit and unprocessed vegetables, a sandwich made of whole wheat bread, a small piece of roast turkey or tomato, germ pie.

Dinner: A lettuce salad or cold soup, such as Italian tomato soup in summer, or a hearty vegetable soup or salad in winter, or steamed lettuce. The menus don't look like anything special.However, these are definitely the menus that those nutrition experts will recommend to you.What's really special about these menus is that they can save you half of the cooking time and more than half of your monthly food expenses.Whenever I pass by a grocery store, I follow the menu I typed out on my computer and am amazed and delighted that there isn't anything I need to buy.Now, what we have to do is to give up those packaged foods, so that we can also reduce a lot of junk food.
