Question by Chini: Eating healthy?
I don’t know why this is so easy for others, but so tough for me. I work full-time, and hate cooking. I usually eat a lot of carbs (bagels, breads, sandwiches, etc) because it is the quickest and easiest thing for me to eat everyday. I also have a hard time thinking of how to eat my daily fruits and veggies. The only way I can think of cooking veggies is steaming them, and that gets so boring after a while. Does anyone have any good ideas/suggestions for eating healthy on a regular/daily basis, getting my fruits and veggies in and eating a balanced diet, without spending hours in the kitchen everyday?

Have you ever hear of Juice Plus? It is a all natural pill of fruits and veggs, it is not a weight los thing. It also gives your over all heath a boost. If you want to know more I can help, my Mother in Law is a distributor. It comes in gummies, chewables and pills. That way you don’t have to worry about eating right.

If you are eating a lot of wheat products, make sure you are eating the most whole-grain product you can find, e.g. breads with oats and other non-wheat grains added, whole wheat bread, bagels, spaghetti, etc.
Also, see if you can fit beans and brown rice into your schedule. Invest in a crock pot to cook dry beans; some beans like lentils don’t even need long term cooking. A crock pot is also good for stews and such.
As for fruits and veggies, you don’t need to cook them – they are actually better for you raw. If you don’t like raw veggies? I think you’re better off with veggies in salad dressing than no veggies at all, but you could also try salsa, cocktail sauce, ketchup, maybe even mustard as a veggie dip. You can find a lot of pre-cut and washed veggies in the supermarket which takes a lot of the time out of cooking.
Also, get some herbal/spice mixes and use them liberally in cooking.

Steamed and raw veggies get old fast! I agree. Try woking some veggies. Give them a little olive oil and a shake of red peper flakes and a little char. Every now and then this is SO good. And great the next day heated up and tossed with 100% whole wheat noodles.
