Wellness Portal Success: Top Chef Challenge
What we learned as a family
A family approach to cooking from one of our staff
We are cooking from home now, more than ever. I was inspired by our Wellness Portal’s Top Chef Challenge to expand my family's favorite go-to meals. As the primary meal planner, I decided it was time to challenge our top 10 list of favorite family meals. Yes, we really do have this list! Lucky for me, my husband is a good cook and my daughters have taken to a whole new level of learning, and shall we say experimenting, in the kitchen over the past 12 months. Thankfully, this was an easy transition to introducing some healthy new recipes.
- Picking new recipes, grocery shopping, and cooking together is a great way to enjoy each other’s company, teach our daughters how to cook and learn about nutrition.
- Spending time discussing/analyzing the cost of cooking gave our daughters a sense of meal planning on a budget.
- Variety is key to keeping us interested in eating well-balanced meals with plenty of fruits and veggies.
The Top Chef Challenge has inspired me to continue to involve my family in meal planning. It has also enhanced my understanding of nutrition and the best way to pair foods together. We even developed a new dinner table tradition — when we try a new dish, we rate it and determine if it joins our Top 10 List!
