[quote=Anonymous]You need to change your way of life when you want to cook healthy food for the family. And teaching kids to eat vegetables is hard but not impossible.

Cooking for some people require planning time and more planning. Not necessarily hours of planning. For example, you need to defrost the chicken legs in the morning and by 5pm, it maybe ready to cook. But, you need to add in the cutting, and spicing it before cooking. It's alot of work. 
And i don't even follow a recipe.

Sounds like you need to demonstrate to her on how to cook. Cook together. It's hard to cook when you are taking care of little kids. They require alot of attention. And when you are cooking, you can't just turn away.

Buying food:
Instead of buying so much chicken in bone pieces, go with the chicken breast and chicken leg. All you need to do is wash, cut and marinate it with some type of spice you want. Cut all your vegetables into pieces and put them into containers or bags in the fridge. Take them out ready to cook.

Method of cooking:
Read about slow cookers or instant pots. I prefer slow cookers because after you put it in, you plug the pot in and let it cook for hours. You can't really burn the food.

You can cook extra and reheat them in the microwave for another day's meals. Like i said, with kids, you don't have alot of time to cook.
