Although I eat mostly vegan and vegetarian meals, my husband and I still eat high-quality grass-fed\/organic meat a few times per month on average. Sometimes we can go months without eating any. Everyone is different, but the key is to pay attention and listen to what our bodies need. If you eat meat or any animal products, always look for grass-fed and organic, since it’s more nutritious for you, better for the planet and the animals.<\/p>\n

The Secrets to a Healthy Meal<\/h2>\n

The “secrets” to cooking a healthy meal in about 30 minutes is to start in a clean kitchen (even if it just means clearing some space on the counter), know where your ingredients and utensils are, and use 2 pans at the same time to roast all of your vegetables and meat. Always start by cooking the vegetables that take the longest to roast (like onions and mushrooms), so you can use that extra time to prepare and cut the rest of the veggies. It might be 1 extra pan to wash, but it means a delicious healthy dinner ready in less time. It also means that you’ll be able to add more vegetables to make this dish truly healthy! We too often limit our vegetables based on the size of our pot\/pan, don’t we? By using 2 pans, you can pile the nutrition in there!<\/p>\n

Vegetables should be half of each dish, so bring on the veggies! And feel free to use what you have in your fridge too, you don’t have to follow the recipes to the letter. Carrots, spinach or Swiss chard make a delicious addition to this dish.<\/p>\n

Bon app\u00e9tit!<\/p>\n
