Making Family Resolutions That Last
by Beth Ceccarelli
Making resolutions as a family unit can help motivate us to stick with our changes all year long, plus it allows time for bonding. Here are four easy and fun resolution ideas to get started:
- Experiment with produce.
- Make ingredient swaps together.
- Try quinoa or brown rice instead of white rice.
- Serve plain oatmeal with fresh or dried fruit and nuts instead of pre-sweetened oatmeal.
- Prepare whole-grain pasta instead of white pasta.
- Enjoy low-fat frozen yogurt instead of regular ice cream.
- Snack on fat-free popcorn instead of full-fat versions or other fried snacks.
- Start a family recipe challenge.
- Reduce screen time and fit in fun.
