Eat to support your metabolism!

Cooking is a sacred and calming activity for me. At times, if you walk into my kitchen you’ll find me with two slow cookers and a stock pot, all going at once, because that’s maybe the only night I have to cook for the entire week. You’ll see Tupperware and freezer bags laid out all over the counter. After everything cools I portion it all out for family meals, one-serving meals, breakfasts, lunches, and dinners, and then I label everything and stick it in the freezer. It can be a crazy assembly line for one afternoon, but it makes the rest of the week totally seamless. Sometimes I even invite friends over for a bring-your-own-Tupperware cooking party. But as much as I love to cook, I am also living a very full life and at times stretched very thin financially, emotionally, and for time, as I bet you are too. Therefore most of the recipes I have included are things I prepare daily, so I know they are pretty quick and can be made on the fly. Many can be made on a shoestring budget; a few you could serve to a kind. I also know that most of them freeze and reheat well. Be well!
