The #1 Time-Saving Tip for Busy Cooks ⏳
Want to spend less time in the kitchen and eat delicious, healthy meals? Batch prepping is a game-changer!

Instead of starting from scratch every night, cook once and use it in multiple meals. For example:

🥗 Cook a big batch of quinoa → use it in salads, stir-fries, and grain bowls
🍠 Roast a tray of veggies → add them to wraps, pasta, or tacos
🌮 Make a simple sauce → instantly upgrade multiple meals

Did you know that Arby’s does not plan to add more vegetarian options anytime soon?
🙃 Shocking right!? 🙃

But don’t worry, you can still find something to eat if you’re hungry and on the go.

Your best bet is the Greek gyro without the beef, add some extra veggies, and more tzatziki. 🌯

Not a full meal, but it’ll hold you over until you can get a proper lunch or dinner.

Want the full rundown on Arby’s vegetarian menu? We’ve got all the details for you!

I have a “Use Me First” bin in my fridge. It’s not fancy, but it works.

It’s where half-used veggies, random leftovers, or nearly-expired yogurts go to be rescued before they go to waste.

It’s the first place I check when I need to throw together a meal or pack a snack. And my family knows to check there, too, for snacks.

This is just one of the low-stress, high-impact tips I shared in my latest post about reducing food waste in the kitchen. If you’re ready to waste less (without doing more), this is for you.

“Clean.” “Natural.” “Nourishing.”

These words sound good, right? But in most cases, they don’t actually mean anything. At least not in a regulatory or nutritional sense.

Buzzwords are emotional shortcuts. They trigger that gut reaction that tells you, “This must be good for me.”
And once you’ve had that thought, it’s really hard to look at the rest of the label objectively.
In this post, I share how these words work on us and how you can gently start to question them, without guilt or fear.

The health halo effect can mislead, exclude, and even harm. Learn what it is, how it works, and what to watch for so you can make informed choices that truly support your health.

It gives you a solid structure, but leaves room to adapt, customize, and make it your own.
