March is Nutrition Month

3/6/2015

 
A lot of people struggle with making healthy food choices outside of the home. That’s why Nutrition Month 2015 is dedicated to helping Canadians learn how to eat well all day long – whether at work, at school or at play.

With the right recipes, tips and a little planning, anyone can prepare nutritious meals and snacks for anytime and anywhere. Make it and take it, wherever the day takes you.

Stock Up for Success

Top three suggestions for stocking in cupboard, fridge and freezer:

Cupboard
  • Canned salmon, tuna and legumes such as black beans and chickpeas to protein-boost a lunchtime salad.
  • Whole grains like quinoa, barley, brown rice and small whole grain pasta shapes for soups and salads.
  • Flavoured vinegars and oils for quick salad dressings and flavour boosts.


Fridge
  • Fresh fruit, yogurt, nuts and nut butters for smoothies. Just top it with some fresh fruit – yum!
  • Washed leafy greens and ready-to-go veggies, cooked and raw, for salads and snacks and soups.
  • Roasted meats, cooked poultry, cheeses and hard-boiled eggs for sandwiches.


Freezer
  • Whole grain pita and tortillas for pockets and wraps.
  • Frozen veggies for quick soups and stir-fries, and frozen berries for super smoothies and parfaits.
  • Leftover chillies, soups, stews and casseroles portioned out in ready-to-go containers.

Nutrition Month is presented by Dietitians of Canada, as well as thousands of dietitians across the country.  For some great recipes, visit their website at http://www.nutritionmonth.ca/recipes
