Hand-Picked Tips

In many ways, September feels like the busiest time of year. With all the back-to-school excitement, it is not a coincidence that our country celebrates National Family Meals Month in September. We all know it takes time and effort to plan meals and food preparation tips are always helpful. There are so many new kitchen appliances, from the instant pot to the air fryer, that the trusty slow cooker often gets overlooked. Consider using a slow cooker to transform an ordinary meal into a cozy, rich dish. Another way to create a no-fuss, no-muss family meal is to cook in “bulk.” Simply double up on “freezer friendly” recipes and use your freezer as a “food bank” to store future meals. This is such an easy hack, it almost feels like cheating.

With the busy fall schedules, it is not unusual to see the same meals appearing over and over again. While this can be easy and convenient initially, food monotony can lead to unhealthy habits in the long run. Learn how to avoid landing in a food rut. And, if you find yourself in this situation, don’t miss the nutrition event this month "Escaping the Food Rut.” Discover how to bring new inspiration to your food repertoire. September is a time to get creative with your favorite foods and seasonal produce. As always, enjoy all the foods the season has to offer.
