Now that we are getting used to a new normal schoo

Now that we are getting used to a new normal school routine around here, I am finding new ways to be creative with after school snacks! ⁠
⁠
My two girls have been ravenous after a busy day, and sometimes we need to eat a snack between school and activities and sometimes we have time to be at home.⁠
⁠
When I am offering a snack to my kids, I love including fruits and veggies to give them a boost of energy and nutrients and I will pair these with foods that contain protein, healthy fats, and grains.⁠
⁠

Sometimes the best we can do is take a deep breath and help our kids get their feelings out, get through them, and move on to the next meal or snack.⁠

Kids are back in school and we are getting used to new routines. ⁠
⁠
Making the effort to have a meal plan in place can make those busy weekday evenings run a little more smoothly!⁠
⁠
Here are some of my tips for Meal Planning for Families:⁠
🍞 Check your pantry before grocery shopping⁠
📅 Reference your calendar and plan leftovers or a quick meal for busy days⁠
🌮 Make a list of family favorites and pull from these when you need a crowd pleaser⁠
🍲 Try a new meal when you have time⁠
🥘 Make a double batch and save half in the freezer⁠
🥙 Plan a leftovers night⁠
🍉 Bonus: Have your kids help you prepare the meal!⁠

First week of school is in the books! 📚️⁠
⁠
We have had a full summer of traveling, moving, day camps, and having fun. Between all of that, we left all the time for relaxing and enjoying family time. ⁠
⁠
Admittedly, I have been a little quiet here in IG, and I needed that break! Now that the kids are back in school, I will have more time to connect with you!⁠
⁠
Whether you have started school, or are soaking up the last bit of summer, I am cheering you on into the weekend, my friends! 🤍⁠
