Prepping Meals for Seniors

Caregivers often find it challenging to prepare healthy and easy meals. But with a little bit of planning, it’s possible to make healthy and delicious meals that are quick and easy to prepare. One option is to use a slow cooker. This allows you to put all ingredients in at once and have a healthy meal ready hours later. Another option is to prepare meals ahead of time. This can be done by cooking brown rice or quinoa, for example, and then adding a variety of healthy toppings such as vegetables, chicken, or fish.

Fresh Fruits and Vegetables

Fresh fruits and vegetables are also important components of a healthy diet. When grocery shopping, try to pick up fresh produce in season. This will not only taste better, but it will also be more affordable. Olive oil is a healthy cooking oil used for stir-frying, roasting, or salad dressings.
