It is often much more convenient to throw one thing in the crockpot for the family or resort to the fast food last resort rather than preparing the healthy and nutritious meal that we should be eating.
There are things you can do however that will reduce the temptation to hit the drive-thru and keep you on course with your dieting needs. The first of these is a process known as once a week cooking.
