Healthy Choices for Busy Families



Some days I feel like SUPER mom

kids are up on time
hot breakfast waiting for them
house gets cleaned
dinner is in the crock pot
work is completed
everyone gets where they need to be after school
and we meet up at the end of the day to a great meal.

and then there are MOST days

House is messy
laundry is piling up
kids are headed in 10 different directions which means I get to spend my entire afternoon in the car
and...
hubby left his keys somewhere his car is not
so off to work to pick him up.

It's 6:00
there is NO dinner waiting at home
and we are stuck in traffic.

This is when
Healthy Choice comes in REAL handy.
{and it's even more budget friendly with the coupon}

Honestly, we don't eat many frozen meals at all,
but for nights like these, it is SO convenient.



The kids each get a meal of their choice
{no whining at all}
with a huge selection of Healthy Choice Top Chef  Cafe Steamers,
there truly is something for everyone.

I was hoping to try the crustelss pot pie, but they were gone.
I chose Chicken Marsala instead, and it was delicious.
Stella decided to try the ravioli,



and before I even blinked, they had disappeared.

Charlie LOVED his BBQ steak SO much, he wanted one for his lunch:)

We even brought home  Healthy Choice Greek frozen yogurt for dessert.



Sure, stopping for fast food is "fast" as well,
but not really the healthiest of choices.

While the kids helped to
"steam"
the meals
I had time to prepare a strawberry salad.
{pretty much how I make sure the kids are getting their veggies}




In a matter of minutes we were sitting down to dinner
and dessert
and everyone was happy.

  1. Love those days Heather where I feel on the top of the world! But life is hardly that way. I find more and more I'm just a scattered mess! It is nice to have an easy meal on hand!
