I don’t know how many times I am  thinking about writing an article and I come across a resource or article that expresses my thoughts better than I could!!  I am thankful that there are so many resources available-however, for some people it can be overwhelming to wade through the plethora of health and fitness articles and studies and videos out there. That’s where I, Your Bff, come in!!  For me, it’s intriguing and exciting to discover all these handy and helpful nuggets of information!  So I am embarking on a journey of discovery!  As I make discoveries, I will share them in little bits of threes.  So, February, that month celebrating three special words (I LOVE YOU-of course), will be our ‘Month of 3s’!

Each week I will share batches of: three words, three hints, three tips, three resources, three exercises, etc., etc., which will help you in your journey of making ‘better choices for healthier lifestyles’. And speaking of batches—Here is a sneak peek of what I am talking about!

Three Reasons to Cook with Muffin Tins

I recently came across a website called ‘Appetite for Health’.  One of their articles addressed an easy way to accomplish THREE important things in healthy eating:

  1. Make cooking fast and easy so you will DO it!
  2. Make it easy to control/determine portions- by pre-proportioning the food when you cook it. This will help you keep calories in check.
  3. Make things that you can make ahead and that are portable.

    Although not all muffins are created equal(ly healthy)-they ARE a good size when it comes to a healthy portion!

These are principles that I repeat over and over to my clients!  And guess what?!  Appetite for Health has a great solution, one that I have used, but never thought to suggest to clients as a regular method, until now. The brilliant suggestion is MUFFIN TINS! So, head on over to www.appforhealth.com and find out what other helpful tidbits they have on their plates!  And here’s the link for the ‘Muffin tin cooking’.  Enjoy!
