As a busy daycare provider, I find myself skipping lunch, or grabbing a handful of chips (guilty) as I go to my next task. That usually leads to me grabbing more junk food whenever I pass through the kitchen. Then, I’m exhausted by the end of the day.
We need to take care of ourselves even though we may be busy running a business, or just being a mom. I know there are many of us that find ourselves getting into the bad habit of not eating right.
One of my favorite thing to make for lunch is chicken salad. Especially served on a croissant. Yum! I find that it’s light, but filling. I like that I can even make it the night before, so that way I can just pull it out of the fridge and I’m good to go!
