Healthy Habits

I have found many easy and healthy recipes in The Food Lover's Healthy Habits Cookbook with Janet Helm, RD. The book also includes tips on how to improve your health by focusing on changing behaviors. Instead of being diet-focused, it encourages readers to concentrate on 1 of 12 healthy behaviors for an entire month - in hopes that they will turn into habits. These are the 12 Healthy 

Habit Goals

• Cook at least 3 more meals per week
• Eat a healthy breakfast every day
• Eat 3 servings of whole grains each day
• Be active for at least 30 minutes per day, at least 3 times per week
• Eat 3 servings of veggies each day
• Make seafood the main entree of 2 meals per week
• Increase healthy fats and decrease unhealthy fats every day
• Go meatless 1 day a week
• Add strength training at least 2 times a week
• Reduce the amount of sodium you eat
• Find ways to help decrease "mindless" eating
• Be mindful, purposeful, and joyful each time you eat

I'm working on increasing the number of meals I cook at home - and that means searching for easy healthy recipes ~ I'll be adding them to my blog (hopefully with the label "Healthy Options" ;o). Today I plan on fixing, Corn Tortillas with Mahi & Mango filling and Cabbage Slaw. Yummy!!!
