New! 20-Minute Dinners

by Stephanie

New! 20-Minute Dinners

More than ever, families are rushing from one practice or game to another. Nourishing meals are brushed to the side for lack of time and energy to prepare them.

But just because you’re in a rush to the game, doesn’t mean we can’t cook great meals! After all, our kids need proper nutrition to keep up their energy before and after working their bodies so hard.

I created 20-Minute dinners for the busy family that wants to cook healthy and delicious meals but doesn’t have a ton of time to cook.

This dinner plan offers seven meals that all contain at least 25 grams of protein and 5 grams of fibre so your family can be full for longer. It also includes a full grocery list so you just need to check the list and head to the store to get what you need.

This dinner plan truly is a time saver and will help you to make healthy meals for you and your family during your busy sports weeks. We don’t have to spend hours prepping on the weekend or scarfing down drive thru in the car.

P.S.: A tip my clients find helpful is to print the recipe booklet to keep with their other recipe books for easy access!

The hubs has been very diligent about getting out The hubs has been very diligent about getting out for his steps and most time it’s at night. It takes more of an effort for me, but when I go it’s magical especially in the snow with all of the lights. Plus we get the added benefit of fresh air before bed. I highly recommend it!

As much as possible eat whole foods. I have teens so you know… this isn’t always in my control but do what you can at home.

Wash your hands! You don’t need antibacterial soap… just regular soap will do the trick.

Keep up with vitamins and minerals. Lemon water with a bit of salt first think in the morning and teas throughout the day. 

My kids take the first few supplements every day and the last few when they feel something coming on. 

I’m a huge fan of lemon ginger buckwheat honey tea when sick. Buckwheat works well on coughs!

Eat a big breakfast, go to bed early, get outside and get some exercise. When you’re sick go outside for fresh air.

There’s more weirdo stuff I can tell you about but this is a great start.

(I really hope I don’t jinx our family with this post! 🤪).

P.S. I’m not a doctor. I’m simply telling you what has worked for my family for years.
