On this episode of the Healthy Family Project Podcast, we're joined by Laura Fuentes, creator of MOMables, to discuss short order cooking and steps families can take to avoid it and make mealtime stress-free. We covered how to set boundaries and improve family communication, how to ease into meal planning, and tons of kitchen hacks to save time and make cooking less overwhelming.
As busy parents, we're often pulled in a million directions between work, school, extracurricular activities, driving kids around, on top of all of our daily tasks. Time and time again, we hear from parents who find themselves feeling stressed spending way too much time in the kitchen cooking different meals for their selective eaters while trying to meal prep and pack lunches for the week.
We're here to discuss how parents can cut back on the constant short order cooking and transform mealtime to balance their kids' food preferences without defaulting into cooking 3+ meals every night. Spoiler alert: it's totally possible and throughout the episode, you'll hear lots of tips and strategies to make mealtime work for your family in a way that reduces stress, kitchen clean up and time spent cooking.
