In today’s “What We Eat in a Day,” I’m taking you along for real-life, simple family meals to kick off the New Year in a way that actually feels doable as a busy mom. I’m sharing easy meal ideas that keep us fed without me living in the kitchen—think practical breakfasts, quick lunches, and a dinner that’s cozy, filling, and family-friendly. This is very much my “feed everyone, keep it moving, and don’t overcomplicate it” kind of day. I also chat about how I like to keep things a little more balanced going into 2025—adding in protein where I can and choosing options that help me feel good and stay on track, even when the day is chaotic. Transparent Labs is sponsoring this video, so I’m sharing their Grass-Fed Whey Protein Isolate and how it fits into my routine when I need something fast but still want it to be clean and taste good. If you’re looking for new year meal inspiration that’s realistic for a family (and especially for a single-mom schedule), this one is for you.
