]]> With your kids attending school five days a week, thinking of what to pack for them every day can prove challenging. This becomes even more difficult when you’re trying to give them a healthy diet. Here are some tips to help you easily provide your kids with healthy packed lunches for school.

Prep in Advance

Bulk cooking can help you save time and effort, enabling you to prepare an entire week’s meals in one afternoon. Make sure to cook all of the vegetables, meats, and anything else that you’re planning to feed your kids throughout the school week so that you don’t have to slave away on weeknights.

Keep Things Simple

While it’s important for your little ones to receive a nutritious meal, this doesn’t have to involve any complicated cooking. A turkey sandwich with all the trimmings will provide your kids with carbohydrates, proteins, and greens.

Don’t Forget About Yourself

As you cook for your kids, make some extra for yourself as well. This will save you time on further unnecessary meal prepping. This will also ensure that you too get a healthy intake of food throughout the week.

After all, what you eat in the middle of the day can mean the difference between a full and focused afternoon and a sluggish second half of the workday.

]]> Sometimes your over-easy egg, scrambled eggs, or frittata can be a little boring and you are always looking for ways to make the basic egg recipe into something more exciting. Eggs can be a staple at nearly every meal because they can be cooked in so many different ways. Here are three egg recipes to add some more spice to your meals.

Breakfast Egg Muffins

These are really easy to make and can be eaten on the go. You can make enough for the week and freeze them so you will always have a ready-to-eat breakfast. Add any vegetables to the mix and whatever spices you like and just mix it up from week to week.

The base for all egg muffins is 12 large eggs combined with half an onion finely chopped and salt and pepper to taste. Add 1/2 cup of milk or plant milk to the mix. Pour the mixture into a muffin tin (up to halfway) and then add your veggies of choice. Bake for 15-20 minutes and enjoy for the next few days.

Lunch Spinach Shakshuka

This middle eastern dish is usually made with tomatoes, but if you are looking to add more green vegetables to your plate then spinach shakshuka is the way to go.

All you need is a large pan, olive oil, onions, eggs, spices of your choice, and lots of spinach, and you will have the most filling egg dish. Soften the onions in the pan and add the spinach to low heat, the spinach needs to be soft. Make four indentations and crack the eggs into them. Raise the heat to medium and cover the pan and cook until the whites are set and the yolks are a little runny. Enjoy with a few slices of toast.

Dinner Frittata

A really easy dish to make and another one that you can add almost anything to it to keep it interesting.

You need eight eggs, whatever choice of vegetables you decide, and some salt and pepper and spices. Whisk all the ingredients together. Heat some olive oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and saute one onion until soft. Reduce the heat to low and add the egg mixture to cook for about two minutes. Place in the oven for seven to nine minutes. And enjoy!

]]> If you find yourself getting tired in the afternoon, you need to try eating this baked potato tuna dish for lunch. Not only is it delicious, but it’s packed full of crucial nutrients that will keep you performing at your best all day long. Here’s what you need to know.

Cook the Potato

For quick results, pierce a baked potato all over and cook it in the microwave on full power for around five minutes. After seven minutes, turn it around and cook for a further five to seven minutes, or until soft in the middle. Then, move into the oven and bake at 415 F for a further 10 minutes. This is to make the skin all nice and crispy.

Prepare the Tuna

The best tuna for this dish is canned in sunflower or olive oil. Pour the contents of the can into a bowl and mix with a couple of dollops of mayonnaise until it is all combined.

Serve With Salad

When the potato skin is crispy, serve with butter in the middle to fluff up the potato. Then, add the tuna mix and serve with fresh cucumber, tomato, and lettuce.

Nutrients

Besides filling you up and tasting great, this meal is high in slow-release carbohydrates, protein, omega-3, and all sorts of minerals. This gives your body and your brain what they need to perform at their best.

𝐋𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐥 𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐩 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐢𝐥, 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐢𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐬 ⠀ Мой большой страх в фудстайлинге – это использование масла и соусов🙄 Заключается он в том, что в случае ошибки поправить что-то будет либо проблематично, либо вообще невозможно. Сливки из тарелки с супом, например, уже не убрать, да и шоколадный соус на панкейках вряд ли польется по заданной траектории, по пути образуя идеальные подтеки. Все это приводит мою придирчивую натуру в отчаяние😁, и я могу долго кружить вокруг тарелки, не зная как лучше к ней подступиться. Так что я выработала для себя несколько правил при работе с такими ингредиентами н̶а̶и̶б̶о̶л̶е̶е̶ ч̶а̶с̶т̶о̶и̶с̶п̶о̶л̶ь̶з̶у̶е̶м̶ы̶м̶и̶👇🏻 ⠀ 🔸Масло наношу на продукт кисточкой, обычно только на определенные области, а капли делаю точечно ложкой. А вчера впервые получилось аккуратно налить его из бутылки с дозатором, но тут уж дело практики и, мне кажется, все равно раз на раз не приходится. Со сливками работаю также ложкой, но есть проблема в слишком большой разнице в их консистенции в зависимости от производителя, потому и ведут они себя с блюдами по-разному. С каждым блюдом каждые сливки🤪 ⠀ 🔸Мед и сладкие соусы всегда лью постепенно, как бы наслаивая в нужных местах, чтобы удлинить капли. Важно найти устраивающие вас по плотности и прозрачности, ибо некоторые из них ведут себя настолько отвратительно, что как не изгаляйся, в кадре выглядят не особо аппетитно. ⠀ 🔸И мой главный совет, очевидный в своей простоте😜, делать промежуточные снимки. Я всегда действую поэтапно, чтобы впоследствии было с чем работать во имя создания вкусной картинки при помощи Фотошоп🙌🏻 ⠀ P.S. Самое смешное, что в повседневной жизни я НЕ ем никакие соусы, максимум мед и натуральный йогурт с зеленью, так что будь моя воля и на фотографии бы их не использовала. Но красота требует жертв😅

The base for all egg muffins is 12 large eggs combined with half an onion finely chopped and salt and pepper to taste. Add 1/2 cup of milk or plant milk to the mix. Pour the mixture into a muffin tin (up to halfway) and then add your veggies of choice. Bake for 15-20 minutes and enjoy for the next few days.

Lunch Spinach Shakshuka

This middle eastern dish is usually made with tomatoes, but if you are looking to add more green vegetables to your plate then spinach shakshuka is the way to go.

All you need is a large pan, olive oil, onions, eggs, spices of your choice, and lots of spinach, and you will have the most filling egg dish. Soften the onions in the pan and add the spinach to low heat, the spinach needs to be soft. Make four indentations and crack the eggs into them. Raise the heat to medium and cover the pan and cook until the whites are set and the yolks are a little runny. Enjoy with a few slices of toast.

Dinner Frittata

A really easy dish to make and another one that you can add almost anything to it to keep it interesting.

You need eight eggs, whatever choice of vegetables you decide, and some salt and pepper and spices. Whisk all the ingredients together. Heat some olive oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and saute one onion until soft. Reduce the heat to low and add the egg mixture to cook for about two minutes. Place in the oven for seven to nine minutes. And enjoy!

]]> If you find yourself getting tired in the afternoon, you need to try eating this baked potato tuna dish for lunch. Not only is it delicious, but it’s packed full of crucial nutrients that will keep you performing at your best all day long. Here’s what you need to know.

Cook the Potato

For quick results, pierce a baked potato all over and cook it in the microwave on full power for around five minutes. After seven minutes, turn it around and cook for a further five to seven minutes, or until soft in the middle. Then, move into the oven and bake at 415 F for a further 10 minutes. This is to make the skin all nice and crispy.

Prepare the Tuna

The best tuna for this dish is canned in sunflower or olive oil. Pour the contents of the can into a bowl and mix with a couple of dollops of mayonnaise until it is all combined.

Serve With Salad

When the potato skin is crispy, serve with butter in the middle to fluff up the potato. Then, add the tuna mix and serve with fresh cucumber, tomato, and lettuce.

Nutrients

Besides filling you up and tasting great, this meal is high in slow-release carbohydrates, protein, omega-3, and all sorts of minerals. This gives your body and your brain what they need to perform at their best.

𝐋𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐥 𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐩 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐢𝐥, 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐢𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐬 ⠀ Мой большой страх в фудстайлинге – это использование масла и соусов🙄 Заключается он в том, что в случае ошибки поправить что-то будет либо проблематично, либо вообще невозможно. Сливки из тарелки с супом, например, уже не убрать, да и шоколадный соус на панкейках вряд ли польется по заданной траектории, по пути образуя идеальные подтеки. Все это приводит мою придирчивую натуру в отчаяние😁, и я могу долго кружить вокруг тарелки, не зная как лучше к ней подступиться. Так что я выработала для себя несколько правил при работе с такими ингредиентами н̶а̶и̶б̶о̶л̶е̶е̶ ч̶а̶с̶т̶о̶и̶с̶п̶о̶л̶ь̶з̶у̶е̶м̶ы̶м̶и̶👇🏻 ⠀ 🔸Масло наношу на продукт кисточкой, обычно только на определенные области, а капли делаю точечно ложкой. А вчера впервые получилось аккуратно налить его из бутылки с дозатором, но тут уж дело практики и, мне кажется, все равно раз на раз не приходится. Со сливками работаю также ложкой, но есть проблема в слишком большой разнице в их консистенции в зависимости от производителя, потому и ведут они себя с блюдами по-разному. С каждым блюдом каждые сливки🤪 ⠀ 🔸Мед и сладкие соусы всегда лью постепенно, как бы наслаивая в нужных местах, чтобы удлинить капли. Важно найти устраивающие вас по плотности и прозрачности, ибо некоторые из них ведут себя настолько отвратительно, что как не изгаляйся, в кадре выглядят не особо аппетитно. ⠀ 🔸И мой главный совет, очевидный в своей простоте😜, делать промежуточные снимки. Я всегда действую поэтапно, чтобы впоследствии было с чем работать во имя создания вкусной картинки при помощи Фотошоп🙌🏻 ⠀ P.S. Самое смешное, что в повседневной жизни я НЕ ем никакие соусы, максимум мед и натуральный йогурт с зеленью, так что будь моя воля и на фотографии бы их не использовала. Но красота требует жертв😅
