Make Your Lunch Recession Proof by Gourmet Brown Bagging It : The 'How to Cook' Blog

Well, I broke down for a Panko Chicken Salad with Chili Lime Dressing from Sobey's, and a fruit bowl. That's healthier than McD's. :) # 2012/05/19

There is not a more perfect way to reduce the amount of money you spend on meals than by making them yourself!

skinnyandthecitylogo Not only are you saving a ton of money on them, you are making them healthier, lower cal and more gourmet with skinny kitchen!

That’s right…You have no idea how much fat, calories, sodium and other “baddies” you’re actually buying at a restaurant, instead of nutrients, fiber, and minerals!

The results, if I were to post stats here, are staggering!

At SkinnyAndTheCity.com, they have a FREE (that’s what I said…FREE) daily newsletter that’ll help you be in the know of the latest, greatest information to do with style, fashion, food, nutrition and beauty!

Since everyone is in this economic crisis together, we’re all looking for ways to cut corners and save those coins. Since everyone is in this world of overweight indulgences and pretend healthy foods, we are all looking for healthier ways to do things!

Skinny And The City has registered dietitians to help you plan your attack of brown bagging it for lunch…they don’t believe in fad diets ladies, just sensible information they’re happy to divulge! They’ll answer any questions you have as well on nutrition or other topics.

If you’re a busy gal, and I know you are, you need time savers, right? You’re thinking about how you already don’t have any time to shop, prepare and cook things, let alone having enough time to eat! I know!

The writers at “Skinny and the City” are just like you and me! They’re busy ladies, be it moms, wives, single…whatever…Meet:

They just want their lives to be healthy & balanced, and figured they’d share all their valuable information with you too!

The thing is, if you make an organized shopping list, buy what’s on it, prepared it and cook it, that would be less time, and a lot less money, than getting to the restaurant of your choice, choosing what to order and waiting for it!

Your waistline and your wallet will thank you!

Plus, if you sign up for the newsletter, you’re entered to win a fabulous prize each week, but you have to sign up to see what those will be! I’m signing up now!

* Tip: Don’t forget that brown bags are recyclable in your paper and cardboard waste. Also, a brown bag is compostable in your garden! However, don’t think you can only use them once for lunch! They can be reused people!
