No time to cook? Some tips

Posted on Jun 20th 2007 10:37AM by Martha Edwards
Like most people, I often find myself unable to find time to take a bathroom break, let alone cook a big dinner. But I also know that eating right is ultimately one of the most important things a person can do, and it's something you need to find time for. It's simply unacceptable to use a busy schedule as a reason to not pay proper attention to your health.

There are, however, a number of quick and healthy eating tips for people on the go, including purchasing pre-packed, pre-washed and pre-sliced fruits and veggies for a healthy, handy snack. Another good tip? Stock your freezer with frozen vegetables and add them into your quick meals to 'healthify' them in a pinch -- for example, add veggies to a can of marinara pasta sauce, add to whole wheat pasta and voila -- you have an easy and healthy dinner.

Here's what I do: whenever I have some time to spare, I make mass quantities of something healthy like veggie lasagna, and I freeze it for days when I know I won't have the time to eat right. What do you do?
