Getting organized so that you can feed your family quick yet nutritious meals – that they will eat – is the first step in simplifying the daily struggles of what to fix, and figuring out what you have.

I’ve started a number of systems for planning meals, creating meal plans and grocery lists, and storing recipes. If you’re reading this, I’m guessing that you have, too.

A little over a year ago, I discovered that I am lactose intolerant. That was a saving revelation, but it was a condition that had only manifest itself over the previous year. My doctor put me on a pretty strict diet to help determine what the trouble was. That diet was basically paleo. Over the years I’ve really been drawn to Tosca Reno’s series of books on clean eating.

My personal food philosophies have been developing and find much with these two theories that I agree with, and everyone in my family feels better when we follow them more closely.
Despite my efforts. Today, I had a Butterfinger candy bar.
