'LIFE JUST GOT A LITTLE EASIER' MEALS

'Life Just Got A Little Easier' Meals can take place when energy levels are extremely LOW as mine are.  I have to look for easier ways to help me get through the days and still eat.

Avoiding canned energy drinks, I prefer solid foods.  One could always have waiting in the fridge 'salads in a jar' made up for you ahead of time to save time and energy.  On the week-end, prep enough salads in a jar for the week ahead.  Sounds simple enough.

Layer ingredients in a Mason jar and store in fridge.  

First to go into jar is the salad dressing, then rinsed black beans, rinsed chick peas, chunks of feta cheese, sliced cherry tomatoes, diced cucumbers, diced celery, torn lettuces and arugula.  Top the Mason jar with a lid, seal, and place salad in the fridge.  Grab and go at meal time.

If you LOVE Cottage Cheese, then this one is a go for you.  Cottage Cheese or yogurt with fruit sprinkled with slivered almonds makes for a QUICK and EASY meal. Just like that, tis ready and little energy was spent on it.  Easy clean-up.  Tadaah.



WITH SO MUCH TIME and ENERGY GOING TOWARD HOUSEHOLD PROJECTS and having very low energy, I look for ways to cut down on THE AMOUNT OF TIME spent on food prepping and clean-up also cutting costs on the grocery bill.  

Nutritional eating is necessary, but so is being on a BUDGET.  

Fixing sandwiches for a daily meal is one of the tools available.   Serving them up on THROW AWAY PAPER PLATE helps with time and energy because less time and ENERGY goes into washing dishes.  Easier clean-ups for us.

JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE EATING OFF OF PAPER PLATES DOES NOT MEAN YOU HAVE TO RUSH THROUGH A MEAL.  SIT A SPELL.  TAKE YOUR TIME.  Eat slower.  Enjoy every morsel of food you are blessed to dine on.

EASY SANDWICH MEALS

Serve sandwiches on paper plate with a side of fruit, veggie, cottage cheese, apple sauce and maybe some chips along with a tall glass of H2O.

CUCUMBER SANDWICH

HUMAS SANDWICH

SANDWICH SPREADS SANDWICH

SMASHED OR SLICED AVOCADO SANDWICH


GROCERY PRICES HAVE SOARED where GROCERIES ARE EXPENSIVE.  Highly processed pre-packaged meals are more expensive and unhealthy for you.  AND I do mean less healthy.  So fresh with less chemicals and pesticides are healthier for humans.



AND THEN THERE'S A GOOD OLD FASHIONED BAKED POTATO TOPPED WITH COTTAGE CHEESE.  Clean and prick the tater, stick in the oven, bake at 400 degrees and go off to do something else for an hour.  When finished baking, top with cottage cheese.  Easy enough.



SAMPLE of daily eating schedule:  Two meals instead of three cuts corners.  11 O'CLOCK BRUNCH AND 4 O'CLOCK EARLY SUPPER WITH A 7 O'CLOCK SNACK or smoothie CAN HELP WITH CUTTING EXPENSES WITH THE GROCERY BILL and spending less time in the Kitchen.  

When eating at 11 for the first meal of the day, Intermittent FASTING occurs. About 15 hours without eating has taken place from evening snack until late breakfast/brunch.  Later in the day, 5 hours between brunch and early supper has taken place.  Then between early supper and evening snack/smoothie, 3 hours occurred.  Nice spacing of time when food is eaten helps with sugar spikes.  Taking a leisurely 15 minute walk after meal helps your muscles absorb glucose directly from your bloodstream, reducing post‑meal blood sugar spikes.


Praise the LORD,

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
