Summer is vastly approaching which means it’s time to shed those Winter “layers.” This is the time of year that most of us dread because we’ve got to work out and eat healthy. Unfortunately, eating healthy has a stigma of being costly, boring, and time consuming. Well I’m here to help dispel that myth because eating right doesn’t have to be expensive or boring.
I am not monetarily rich and I definitely do not consider myself a health nut. As I’ve stated in the ‘Welcome to My Blog’ post, Tyme2Eat is not a healthy eating site because I have not been trained in nutrition nor food science. However, I do a ton of research on whole foods and what’s good for my body, and I attempt to prepare all my recipes using all natural foods and healthier options. I, like most of you, enjoy the occasional “cheating.” On some weekends or when friends are visiting, I indulge. My favorite cheat foods are bacon and fried chicken. I can probably give away my first born before I give up those two things. But knowing I will be able to enjoy my cheat foods on these occasions gives me incentive to eat right the majority of the time. I do not diet but I watch what I eat. Here is an example of how I incorporate Tyme2Eat recipes in my healthy eating regiment.
