👉🏼 HEALTHY TIPS: FOOD SHOPPING DURING COVID-19
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread across the country, Canadians are being told to take extra-precautions through ways of social-distancing, and self-isolation.
In order to reduce the amount of return trips to the grocery store – here are some tips of how to strategically stock your shelves with nutrition in mind:
Frozen fruits & vegetables stored properly can last up to a year without losing nutritional value!
Choose produce with a purpose – Potatoes (including sweet) & Onions can last for weeks in your pantry
Consider canned – tuna, chicken, salmon, as well as beans & chickpeas are all great sources of protein with shelf life of over 2 years
Eggs-are-easy – a carton of eggs can easily last a few weeks in your fridge
Go NUTS – different nuts, seeds, and butters are great at any meal or snack
Rice, Quinoa and Oats oh MY! – all of these items versatile should be pantry essentials
