2 years and 1 baby later

2 years and 1 baby later we finally said bye bye to fast foods well not really of course we still eat them but now its more a treat for us. I have to admit that for the last two years (just to put it nicely) I wasn't the best cook so all the time oftentimes we resort to fast foods. I throw tons of reasons to myself, to my husband and to others just to justify why I don't cook all most of the time but the truth is I'm just not into it. It's not something I like to do nor do I look forward doing. But it came to a point when we needed to change our lifestyle and be more conscious with our health. It is sad though that it came to this point before I realized how important it is to serve my family healthy home cooked meals but yeah they say better late than never.

I am really happy to say that I now serve healthy home cooked/prepared foods for my not so little family. I am also happy that we are all enjoying it even Aidan. He even snacks on vegetables and fruits which is what I really wanted him to do even before he was born. Not only are our tummys happy but also our pockets. Cooking at home really helped us save our money especially now thay we are paying Jesse's tuition in full since he cannot apply for scholarships until next Fall.

Well of course this does not mean that we are not going to eat out all. We have these family date nights which we sometimes call our treat nights when we eat out and try the different local restaurants and from time toi time fastfoods in our area. But even during these times we still try to look for the healthier option.

I have found a couple of websites that offers healthy and easy recipes, one is www.myhealthydish.com  I really find her recipes yummy and easy to make. There's really a lot of help in preparing healthy meals online and I'm really hoping that they can help us keep this habit of healthy and clean eating.
