3 Tips for Healthy Eating During the Pandemic

You may have heard it already – but staying healthy while ‘sheltering-in-place’ doesn’t just mean taking your vitamins! 

While hunkering down may be tough, eating healthy doesn’t have to be. Fresh produce is still available, and now is as good a time as any to learn how to use it in ways you may have never considered! 

Here are some keyways to eat healthy while you ‘shelter-in-place:’

Focus on real food

Healthy, balanced food keeps us productive. It is vital to keep the true proteins, fibers, healthy fats, and fruits and vegetables on your plate. When picking up your groceries for the week, think through some healthy snack options, like grapes or carrots, so when you are looking to snack you avoid the chocolate and candy. Doing so will boost your mood and your health!

Plan your meals 

Having an organized schedule and meal planning goes hand in hand with healthy eating. Start with what you know how to do, and then see how you can incorporate new fruits and vegetables that you are less familiar with into your day-to-day recipes.

Try something new

You have a little more time. You are at home and there is not much to do? Why not hone your cooking skills? Take the time to learn how to cook something new and fresh! Did you know that you can eliminate the bitterness of rapini by blanching it? Have you ever made a citrus glaze? It’s time not only to learn how to eat fresh, but also to be inspired.
