The place to be for all fans of the 'Home Concept.'

 

Today, Due to their significant role in your everyday home life, we would like to discuss the deep connections between our home and food products.

Ultimately, your home is where you store almost all of your food and is also the central place where you consume it. It turns out that for some people, a special connection is developed between their home and their food ingredients. Philosophically speaking - A relationship between environment and content, if you want to call it that way.

 

Although this article will talk about general topics related to food and home relations, we will still try to maintain some clarity and coherence to create a proper and helpful reading sequence.

What food ingredients do you need to keep in your home? How do we obtain and store them? What marketing tricks to avoid while conducting your food shopping? And how.

 

And as always, later in the article, there will be a refreshing video summarizing its content for you.

 

'Home-food relations. The full guide.'

Shall we?

 

 

 

1. Types of products.

Healthy Ones.

 

As you probably know, there is an inseparable connection between the food you consume and your health.

 

Therefore, the first type of food we will discuss is the one that will contribute best to your overall health - Healthy food products.

 

Although you probably already know most of them, We took the liberty to mention a small part:

 

Dark Green Vegetables.

Beans and Lentils.

Whole Grains.

Extra-virgin olive oil.

Lean beef.

Fish.

Tubers.

Fruits and berries.

Coconut oil.

Bread (whole wheat flour).

Dark chocolate.

Organic Yogurt.

Flaxseed, Nuts, and Seeds.

Eggs.

Chicken breasts.

 

Healthy and delicious!

 

As mentioned above, the contribution of this type of food to your health is critically important. These kinds of ingredients can help you maintain good health along with high and available energy. Try to reach the point where most of your food will be based primarily on this type.

And as we always take care to be up to date - read this article regarding the hottest trends in healthy food products.

 

The Traditional.

 

Before describing this type of food, which we named "Traditional," we ask you to imagine a classic family dinner in Dallas, Texas, at a conservative American home in the early 1960s.

Suppose we imagine the same picture as you, then. In that case, A conservative American mother wearing a homey apron with a beehive haircuts serving shepherd's pie to the table next to an excellent lasagna. The family's father scolds his children lightly to sit politely near the table while putting some rice and vegetable salad on their plates. On the table, we will also find hot and fresh homemade bread and, next to it, a jug of freshly squeezed orange juice. The (male) family members anxiously wait to finish their meal to watch their Cowboys play on TV while the mother ensures all the pre-dinner prayers are appropriately said. Good old Dallas - barbecue-god and football.

You can read more here about what dinner at home was like 60 years ago.

 

It goes without saying that this meal description is just an example. The guiding principle behind it is values such as traditionalism and family.

The ingredients we named "Traditional" will include comforting and homely carbohydrates, which will form the basis of any rich family meal.

 

Here are A few examples:

Macaroni and cheese.

Turkey shepherd's pie.

Chicken and gravy.

Celery soup.

Oven pot roast.

Meatball.

Meatloaf.

Roast chicken.

Slow-cooker pork loin.

Separated pork chops.

Chicken and broccoli casserole.

Chicken pot pie.

 

These are just a few examples of the various comforting and homely/family meals we discuss.

 

It is essential to remember that those 'traditional' recipes above are just general examples that do not contain specific recommendations. Buying the 'right' food ingredients that will help you "go back home" and prepare these meals is totally up to you.

The origin of those products will usually come mainly from the vegetable/meat/fish/carbohydrate departments, which also require slow cooking.

Try to think like your grandmother serving you food on Thanksgiving. It will definitely do the trick.

 

 

 

Sweet home

 

By the way, even if we really try our best to be more specific and recommend certain products, It won't get the job done since the variety of recipes relevant to this concept is enormous.

 

 

Cheat Meal (And Products).

 

We finally got to the fun part.

'Cheat' Meals are Meals in which you quite allow yourself - out of an urge to lighten your "serious" diet regime a bit -to eat whatever you feel like, regardless of the calories or the health quality of the food in question. 

You can read more here about cheat meals as a concept.

By the way, due to our desire to stay on topic, we deliberately ignore the well-known question: 'Should You Have Cheat Meals or Cheat Days?' If you really want, you can read about it right here.

Here are a few cheat meal's examples:

 

Pancakes.

Chocolate.

Ice Cream.

Pulled Pork.

Cheese Plate.

Pizza.

Popcorn.

Chicken Wings.

Milkshakes.

Burrito Bowls.

French Fries.

Burgers.

 

All of these are just a few examples. There are many more from where they came from (But you didn't really need us to know that. Isn't it?).

The products required to prepare those meals will be high in sugar and saturated fat, making your arteries less efficient.

The thing about cheat meals is that besides their well-known and notorious disadvantages, they also bear some advantages. Please make an effort to expand your knowledge about them as well and consume them in the right amount.

 

 

Enjoy your cheat!

 

Later in this article, when we get to the ideal storage solutions for all your food products, we will also teach you all about the best way to store your 'cheat components.'
