Whether you’re cooking for two or ten, or even more, you want your healthy meal recipes to be absolutely delicious. You also want them to be quick, easy, and most of all quick ideas for a healthy dinner. You don’t want to rely on eating out frequently, nor do you want to be stuck preparing boxed, bagged, or frozen meals all the time. But who really has time to cook really good diet food from scratch these days? It does, all it takes is a little planning and some prep work ahead of time.
Remember back in the old days when a quick and easy dinner recipe was a can of Franco Spaghetti O’s? And mom cooked dinner in a dress, high heels, and jewelry, right? That is not happening anymore. With mom and dad working full time and fighting heavy traffic to get home fast. The whole family has a busy schedule, from mom and dad to the little ones. So how do you manage to make a good meal for diet meals?
Say hello to your new friend, the “slow cooker”. Pre-marinate your favorite meat, chop up a variety of vegetables, some onions, and any flavorings you want to add, and put them in the slow cooker. Put the lid on, turn the dial to low, and then turn off to work. When you return in the evening, you will have a delicious healthy meal already waiting for you. There are plenty of crock pot cookbooks out there that will tell you how to adapt just about anything to slow cooker goodness. An added benefit of a slow cooker is not having to heat up the kitchen during the summer.
Take a day to cook and make double or even triple batches of some of your favorite healthy meal recipes. Use one batch as tonight’s meal and then freeze the rest in different sized portions. Cut one in half for a full family meal. Cut the other half into individual portions and freeze for lunch or for days when not everyone can eat at the same time. This way everyone can take their favorite dish out of the freezer, heat it up and eat it without anyone having to cook additional food.
One of the quickest, easiest, yet healthy meal recipes I know of is to have sliced turkey breast and baby spinach leaves. Spread the turkey with good mustard on the spinach leaves, roll up as is. Serve with raw vegetables and make it a snack-type meal. The kids will love it, and don’t tell them it’s healthy. It will be our secret.

It comes with a very effective workout routine that teaches you how to boost your metabolism and increase the calories you burn even while you’re resting. It’s called Strip That Fat.
