Bring Disposable Containers With Caregiver Recipes
Another excellent tip when bringing over a meal as a caregiver is to bring the food in disposable containers. This helps relieve the cleaning and takes the pressure off trying to keep up and return dishes. Paper plates and disposable utensils are also helpful. Cooked food that freezes like my Chicken Parmesan makes another healthy easy recipe for a Caregiver to bring to a loved one. Being able to freeze food allows the cancer patient to eat food on their time frame. Also, if food is cooked somewhere else, the smell of food can’t bother the cancer patient. My Caregiver Chapter in Eating Well Through Cancer gives so many caregiver tips. These tips provide great information that is so important during this challenging time.
Florentine English Muffin Recipe Rich in Nutrition For Nutritious Food For Cancer Patients
You know spinach is chocked full of nutrition by its vibrant rich green color – concentrated in phytonutrients and flavonoids, offering healthy antioxidant protection. Spinach is high in the antioxidant Vitamin C. Vitamin C plays an important role in immunity, collagen formation, growth and tissue repair. This recipe fits into a diabetic friendly meal plan. Be sure to choose whole wheat English muffins for an added fiber boost. Think also about adding spinach to whatever you are making. If a recipe calls for two cups spinach, try adding 4 cups to boost nutrition. I like using baby spinach because baby spinach is more tender.
