Where in my post did I say I limit my childs carb intake??? I serve pasta, roasted potatoes (and other root veg), and rice. A pretty typical dinner for my entire household is a portion of protein (chicken, a burger, fish) a veggie, and some sort of carb, with dessert a few times a week. I was simply suggesting that it's not as hard to make and keep on hand healthy food as people are making it out to be if you batch cook. I'm not suggesting roasting veggies with chicken as a sheet pan meal, I am describing roasting up multiple baking sheets of different vegetables in one go (I actually used to sometimes do this before work pre-pandemic) and then having them on hand for the next three days or so to make life easier.

There is no need to feed your children prepackaged junk when it's so easy to serve fruit and yogurt or chips and hummus as a snack. And again, why the salad hate? I fail to see how a big salad topped with a serving of protein and other fixings is not a meal.

Serious question, do you have an eating disorder? That is the only reason I can see that what I am describing (a diet full of whole foods, mainly shopped from the perimeter of the grocery store, [b]with some indulgences[/b]) sounds unhealthy to you. [/quote]

Yes, ok, sure! I am the one with an eating disorder! Here you are yelling around about pre-packed junk and feeding kids hummus.  Shopping the perimeter, you are legit insane! Nothing wrong with a bag of potato chips here and there. If you this there is something wrong with it occasionally, you are seriously nuts.[/quote]

Not pp, but she did say with some indulgences.  Shopping the perimeter with some indulgences is a very healthy way to eat and is what I do. Presumably the indulgences cover potato chips here and there or some ice cream.  Why be so mean? [/quote]
