Hot on the heels of reading this article, we had our first Planet Organics food delivery for the first time since the fall, which had been indefinitely on hold due to lack of funds. So I'm sitting here having an afternoon mini-meal of a very yummy pre-made whole grain, pecan, and mango salad, instead of something like a bagel or nuked pasta.
Sad but true that salty, fatty carbs are going to fill up your stomach cheaper and more tastily than something healthier that took the same amount of time to prepare. I like to cook, but not three times a day. I don't mind taking some time to make a nice, healthy dinner or lunch, but I don't love it enough to take away from time I could be doing other things for every meal.
