EPISODE SUMMARY:
- Chrissa shares how she helps busy moms plan for meals and feed their children. In today’s world, it can be so overwhelming when we see the perfectly balanced meals on pinterest but it doesn’t have to be that way! It’s so important to take care of us first before we can take care of the children.
- These meal delivery services are fantastic but what do you do if that’s just not in your budget? Chrissa talks about using minimal, easy ingredients that won’t break the bank and shares her most acceptable meals to make for your family.
- Put a different sauce on it! When it comes to meal planning, having the same roasted broccoli can be boring very quickly. So what do you do? Chrissa shares her tips on how she reinvents her meals! She says that she creates different sauces and even freezes them for later.
- What do you do when you’re having a craving? It’s that time of the month and you just want a chocolate cookie, but it’s not a part of your paleo diet! Chrissa says that everyone has their “one thing,” and if you restrict yourself from that thing, you’re going to binge! She says that it’s more about mindful eating. So, maybe instead of feeling guilty about it, you could indulge occasionally and even treat yourself to some delicious get well cookies delivery to satisfy that craving.
