I am a 5 ingredient recipe kind of mom. The easier the better! We keep plenty stock of fruits and veggies and my kids naturally gravitate towards those anyways. Snacks and drinks are our weakness but they get plenty of protein and healthy foods in the fridge! I also tend to lean towards store brands if I can but these are things I’m a stickler on for name brand.
I could live on a diet of dumplings for breakfast, lunch and dinner. New York has some of the best dumplings that I've ever had in my life, and I find myself dreaming about them. Often. This is a list of my all-time favourites from boiled dumplings to gyozas to momos!

An early commute that needs two compact meals, separate drinks, and preparation the night before is the constraint behind this list. A packed lunch needs to survive the commute, stay at a safe temperature and remain pleasant to eat. This list focuses on portioning, insulation, drinks, compact prep and cleanup for workplaces without reheating. Check which lids are leakproof, match container dimensions to the bag, and follow food-safety guidance for temperature control. The route through Portion Food, Control Temperature, Carry Drinks, and Eat and Clean Up keeps similar jobs together, while Sistema To Go Salad Container, Zojirushi Stainless Steel Food Jar, and Contigo Autoseal West Loop show the kind of specific comparisons inside. It should be easy to see what fills a real gap and what would only duplicate something already owned.

Whole Foods is one of those iconic stores that pretty much everyone has heard of. Hosting a large grocery selection of Organic and natural items from foods to cleaning supplies, alcoholic beverages, pet products, personal beauty items, fresh baked goods, sushi, hot soup bar, fresh cheese bar and salad bar! With a growing city creating heavy congestive traffic I do not get to my local Whole Foods as much I used to when I lived closer to the location. Amazon Prime gives the feature of ordering my grocery list easily on the Amazon App to either pick up at the store or have delivered saving more time in my busy life!
