Easy, healthy Meals to make for the family

With the busyness of the weekdays, it can be difficult to find healthy foods to make for your family.  When you need an easy and healthy meal, you might think your options are limited.  The truth is that there are a lot of breakfast, lunch, and dinner foods that are healthy and easy to make.  If you’re interested in learning more about how to make dinner without slaving over a hot stove for hours, here’s your chance.

Breakfast is an essential aspect of starting your day right.  You want your family to have a good start to the day, meaning breakfast should never be skipped.  If your mornings are hectic enough, look at some of these easy to make breakfast foods.  The first option is Grape Nuts Breakfast Bars.  These breakfast bars can be made plenty in advance and ready to grab on your way out the door.  The only necessary ingredients include three cups of Grape Nuts cereal, one cup of unsweetened applesauce, one cup of nonfat milk, two teaspoons of vanilla extract, and one cup of raisins.  To make this healthy breakfast food, preheat your oven to 350 degrees, mix the ingredients together, pour it into a nine-inch square, nonstick dish, and bake for 35 minutes.  Making twelve squares, you and your family will love breakfast time.

Lunch time is often a fast paced, overlooked portion of the day.  With so many activities going on, you need a healthy meal that is easy to make.  Salad is always a great alternative for lunch.  Available in a variety of flavors, your salad can be as fruit-filled or meaty as you want.  Grape salad is a great choice when you’re in the mood for something sweet.  When prepared in advance, this salad can feed your family, six to eight, lunch for the day.  The ingredients include one package of miniature marshmallows, four cups of seedless white grapes, two-thirds cup of chopped nuts, eight ounces of cream cheese, one-half cup of pineapple juice, and one large can of drained pineapples.  Make this salad by creaming the cheese with pineapple juice, adding the remaining ingredients, mixing, and refrigerating for several hours.

For a healthy dinner, lemon chicken is a great choice.  It’s easy to make and healthy, giving your family necessary nutrients with a big flavor.  For this meal, you will need six to eight boneless chicken breasts, one tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce, one-half stick of butter, one cup of lemon juice, and one-half teaspoon of garlic salt.  Combine all of the ingredients into a crockpot and cook on low for eight to ten hours or on high for five to six hours.  When you get home from work, your food will be ready to eat.  Add a healthy side such as asparagus and you’ll have the perfect meal for the family.

These healthy recipes are only a glimpse of healthy alternatives.  Get creative and make healthy meals with your family.  They’re sure to taste good.
