[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I completely get you, OP. I am so sick of providing simple directions only to have the goal of the entire project deemed unnecessary. "Just pick up some boneless chicken breasts and green beans for dinner." For which I have already set aside the rest of the ingredients for a healthy meal. [b]"We got a pizza."[/b][/quote] I'm that DW and that would be me! Let's start at the core. Does your spouse agree with the importance of healthy meals? If the answer is no, basically it's your show as long as you do the work. I think best case there is that he doesn't undermine you with the kids (I.e. He has fruit loops for dinner while the kids are eating chicken and green beans) and supports and appreciates that you are cooking. If he really believes in health food/living, the next question is does he cook? Because I would imagine it would need to be one of his goals to be able to pull together a healthy meal when you aren't around so he has a go to dish. My DH's does most of the cooking and when he travels for work, he will ask me what food I will need and we discuss possible meals. Since I am working full-time and have cloth drop-off and pick-up I am looking for something quick and easy like pasta or reheating the protein/meat, and making the frozen/microwaveable veggies.
