The Change In The Kitchen

Living solo? Eating healthy was easy. But now with children on board, the struggle to keep your kitchen running smoothly seems to be an endless battle.

Eating and cooking just for yourself is always a well thought out choice. Inevitably it is easily satisfying and can be done so with no backlash from some unhappy taste buds from other people. Your shopping can be done with your preferences in mind but - more importantly - if you have chosen to follow a relatively healthy food plan, the floor is yours. You can pack all the fruit, veggies and proteins to your heart’s delight into your trolley. Once home you can unpack your groceries into your kitchen to the tune of utter satisfaction that you have stayed your path and avoided the junk aisle. However, once you have little children on board, here enters a certain ‘change’ you did not anticipate in terms of different taste requirements, different food preferences and a guaranteed dislike to 80% of your previously accepted ‘clean eating’ plan.
