We know how busy things can get during the weekdays. After your workday, the last thing you feel like doing is spending hours making an elaborate dinner. However, it’s important that you get healthy meals on the table each night so your family can feel their best. Let’s look at some simple, healthy meals with ingredients sourced from Famous Foods, that are perfect for your busy schedule.
Stir-Fries
Stir-fries are a great way to quickly incorporate healthy protein into a dish along with tons of great vegetables. You can also mix in a grain of some sort, such as rice or quinoa. Our favorite recipes include boneless skinless chicken breast, green beans, carrots, corn, and cabbage in a one-skillet meal that is hearty and nutritious. Choose some of the seasonal and organic ingredient options that are available at your local health foods store .
One Pot Meals
Ditch all the dishes after dinner and get all your cooking done in one pot. You can make all kinds of healthy recipes without a stovetop full of pots and pans. Make hearty stews using seasonal squash, local beef, and a grain like barley. Potatoes are another great way to make your stews last longer and make them heartier. Play with different combinations of ingredients from your grocery store in Vancouver to create your own family favourites.
Sheet Pan Suppers
Sheet pan suppers take minimal time to prepare, and they cook quickly. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and load on cut-up vegetables like organic carrots, potatoes, yams, peppers, onions, and broccoli. Cut up a chicken-based sausage as your protein. You have everything you need on one cookie sheet, and it all bakes in about one hour. This is plenty of time for you to get homework done with the kids and unwind from a long day.
Head to your local grocery store in Vancouver to stock up on all the healthy ingredients that you need for your easy weeknight meals. Our health foods store is well equipped to help you get through the busy work week while still eating healthy and nutritious foods. Famous Foods is Canada's original natural and bulk foods store!
