It might even help to eat six smaller meals each day, rather than three larger meals,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\u201cWhen planning your meals, choose those that only need a few ingredients and have short prep times, making sure you avoid foods that are highly processed or fried. <\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\u201cSometimes cooking may only be realistic a few days a week, which is completely normal. On the other days try to purchase food that is already prepared such as rotisserie chicken from the supermarket along with some frozen vegetables.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\u201cWhen you don\u2019t really feel up to preparing food, have ready-to-eat meals and snacks handy.\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Snacks could be yoghurt, baked beans, canned fish, cheese and crackers, fresh boiled eggs, dried fruit and nuts. Whole foods, such as fruit and vegetables, that are ready-to-eat in their natural form like apples, bananas, carrots or cucumbers, are also a great option. They can be grabbed easily from a fully stocked fruit bowl and go well with healthy dips which are easy to find in your fridge. <\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Hayley said, there are also a number of meal services out there which are quite economical.
