[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am looking for recipe books or websites for healthy meals because we eat too many ultra-processed meals. I work in the office and have young elementary kids so time is limited in the evenings. Son also is in sports. Kraft’s Mac and Cheese with hot dogs and salad. Tacos with hard/soft shells. Pasta with sausage. Sloppy Joes. Stir fry. Always have a veg or fruit on the table. [/quote]
Budget Bytes has been a go-to for me. Smitten Kitchen and I aren’t close friends anymore, but I learned a lot from her (this is metaphor, btw, I have never met the woman). Once Upon a Chef has been great (and has two great cookbooks!), Cafe Delights and Alexandra Cooks are good. And I have lost count of how many times I have made this soup: https://iambaker.net/lasagna-soup/ Her recipes are very good but obviously it’s primarily a baking site and not a cooking site (her cookbook is decent though and that’s more cooking recipes vs baking).

The pp who said meal planning and meal prep are the way is correct. Replace one processed meal a week with someone you or your husband (or your son; if he’s old enough to be sports, he’s old enough to help prep) until that becomes a habit that you can prep some of the vegetables for the night before.
