Cooking normally takes a back seat during the week. With work and errands, the last thing you probably want to do on a Wednesday night is spend 15 minutes planning out dinner, 30 minutes grocery shopping (including the drive), and another 30 minutes or so actually making dinner.
It's easy to get frustrated over this routine. The two best ways to make healthy, homemade meals during the week are to take a break before starting to cook and to use online grocery to help with meal selection, planning, and grocery deliver.
Take a Breath
Don’t walk in
the house after work and immediately start cooking. Take a few minutes to relax
and catch your breath. If you immediately start cooking you’ll be completely
exhausted (and maybe even cranky) by the time you sit down. Instead, put out
some healthy snacks as a first course. After that, you'll be more relaxed while
you get dinner on the table and sit down with the people you care about.
