all right let's see if i can do this here so just to be like completely honest with you guys i don't
okay i thought i could hold this and i can't so let me try to sit this down all right hold on
oh gosh uh all right we're good here all right that thing is just so
heavy um what was i gonna say oh so i was gonna start off and say that uh to be honest um i don't
typically eat breakfast i wake up and i'm not usually hungry so i'll have a glass of water
and that typically holds me over until what is i guess lunch time for most people i
always joke and say like i'm somewhere between like intermittent fasting and intuitive eating
because when i am hungry my body is like girl you need to eat and so those mornings i do on mornings
where i do feel like i need to eat in the winter time i typically go for like a warm
bowl of oatmeal and my current fave is this warm apple cinnamon oatmeal it is
so good i cannot eat cold things in the winter i just can't i spend the rest of the day freezing if
i do have a lapse of judgment and i eat something cold i will spend the rest of the day looking like
this it's so cold babe i need another blanket it's still cold i'm cold somebody wore me up
just cold all day literally the whole day so uh yeah warm oatmeal toast tofu scramble those
are like my go-to things in the winter when i am feeling hungry for breakfast

we typically always have rice in our fridge some may call it lazy i personally say it's brilliant
and it's just because like i have a house to run i am helping to run a very quickly growing business
um we homeschool like for real homeschool not like virtual school like a lot of people have been
doing for the last year like we've been in this game for a long time not too long because our kids
aren't that old but you guys get the point we like legit homeschool anywho i i can't be bothered with
like meal prep like for the whole week in one day but i will always like double or triple the amount
of rice because we eat rice a few times a week so that to me is like something that's simple but
it's brilliant and it just helps me a little bit for like lunches or sometimes dinners for the week
and it just makes things go a lot faster i love rice bowls especially at lunch because you can
basically just like use whatever you have that on hand like you have extra tofu in your fridge
cool at it you have black beans in your fridge cool add it stew or curry that was left over
it's basically just like elevating your leftovers for some type of meal and uh
and you can always just like you can add like a vegetable or two like avocados or tomatoes
or marinated onions or something like that and you basically even if you don't have rice and
you have like quick cook rice in your in your fridge or not your fridge your pantry like you
can basically have lunch ready to go in like 15 or 20 minutes like easy peasy no fuss no worries

listen before this pandemic happened i was tired these kids keep us on our toes but now
it's like it's a whole new level of tired and if you are a mom during this pandemic
then you know exactly what i'm talking about without saying anything else um before then
i couldn't be bothered with meals that took longer than 30 minutes it's why i love my instant pot and
my crock pot because it's like 15 20 minutes of prep time and then it's like bam see you at
dinner time i love meals like that during the day here there is so much talking don't get it twisted
i love the laughs and the giggles and the fun and the family and all of that stuff but listen
do you hear that
(quietly) silence
i don't get much of that during the day so when it comes to dinner time
my brain cells are pretty much depleted for the day and i need something that is quick
but filling and comforting that is going to get them to go to sleep quickly so like tacos
skillet meals stir fries things like that that take basically a little bit of prep time and a
little bit of cook time those are our go-to meals throughout like the entire week we want something
that is quick but also that is like filling and nourishing and gets all of the things that we
need into our bodies every day hey we really hope that you liked this video uh we try to keep these
super realistic very normal for what our family eats and you know not a lot of like exotic things
