Healthy habits I have picked up along the way

1. walk 30 minutes a day, every day.
2. cut out must the fats, because you still need a little fat in your food and in your body.
3. Plan your meals
4. Cook the same thing for everyone in the house.
5. East fruits and vegetables.
6. No More Cheese. (Only fat free) I rather not eat it at all since I do not like to eat any fat free processed foods.

The only low fat I eat are:

1. Majo
2. Sour Cream
3. Cream Cheese

I do try to limit all of it.

If you add lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic powder to steam veggies, and salads you and your kids will be more likely to eat them.

NO CHEESE.

Cheesy Sloppy Joes



















1/2 lb. lean ground beef/ground turkey
1 (10oz) Package frozen mixed Vegetables.
1 (6oz) can tomato paste
1 (1.3 or 1.5 oz) Package sloppy joe seasoning mix.
3 Whole Wheat Hamburger Buns/or whole-wheat English Muffins
6 (3/4oz) Slice Fat-Free Cheddar Cheese.

1. Heat a large non stick skillet over medium high heat. Add the beef and cook until browned, 4-5 minutes, stirring with a spoon to break it up. Discard any drippings.

2. Stir in the mixed vegetables, 1 1/3 cups water, and tomato paste, and seasoning mix; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring, until thickened, about 10 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, preheat the broiler; Place the buns, cut side up, on a broiler rack and broil 3 inches from the heat until toasted 1 - 2 minutes. (I put mine in the toaster). Top each bun half with 1 slice of cheese and broil until the cheese is melted, about 1 minute longer. Spoon 1/2 cup of the beef mixture on top of each bun half and serve at once.
