A great way to prepare a nutritious meal is to start with recipes that require very little time. Once you choose a simple recipe, build the rest of your meal around it. As you plan your meal, try to:
- Start with ingredients you already have on hand
- Include a variety of foods from at least 3 food groups
- Always include at least 1 veggie or fruit
- Choose foods that are full of nutrients
- Limit added sugars, saturated fat, and sodium
