Camp Shane - For Kids : Below are 5 tips for time-crunched parents to cook healthy at home. The tips are offered by Ziporah Janowski, co-owner of the Camp Shane weight loss camp for children and young adults.
“When they first come to us, eating out has become a habit for many of our campers,” says Ziporah, also a mother of two teenagers. “We try to educate them that cooking at home doesn’t have to be an onerous task. In addition to saving money, preparing meals at home can be a simple route to weight loss and to building a healthy lifestyle for the whole family.”
Ziporah has also released her favorite recipes for quick & healthy dinners, such as “1-2-3 Simple Pea Soup” and “Rush Hour Rainbow Primavera,” here: www.campshane.com/blog.
- Make frozen veggies your friend. Stock up on frozen veggies like spinach, peas and broccoli florets to add to main dishes or serve as sides by themselves. In addition to lasting longer, research shows that today’s “flash frozen” vegetables can be just as healthful as their fresh counterparts.
- Choose longer-lasting lettuce. Sure, the triple-washed bagged lettuce is easy, but it costs a fortune and it doesn’t last very long. Try seeking out lesser known types of fresh greens that last longer than the traditional green leafy lettuces. Examples of nutrient-rich lettuce types that last a long time--and are very inexpensive--include things like chicory, romaine, radicchio, kale and dandelion greens.
- Get Technical. Subscribe to an e-newsletter that will email you healthy and quick recipes each week. There are thousands of them that you can sign up for on sites like FoodNetwork.com and RecipeNewsletters.com.
- Leave the skins on. Not only will it save you tons of time from peeling, if you leave the skins on vegetables such as potatoes and carrots when you are cooking, it helps them to retain more of their nutrient value and fiber and keep you full longer.
- Make it a family affair. One of the best ways to prevent childhood obesity is getting kids into the kitchen. Encourage your kids to ask questions and help out while you are preparing the meal.

if I was Canadian...
I've heard of Camp Shane before...but I don't remember where.
Even if I wasn't Canadian, if I had an extra $120 laying around - those are pretty cool!
