When shopping for family members with different health needs or preferences, it helps to plan ahead. Here are three tips to help satisfy everyone.
- Plan menus and grocery lists together. Include food options that everyone can enjoy.
- Look at cookbooks, magazines or websites for meal ideas that meet your needs.
- Try a “do-it-yourself” meal, such as fajitas, tacos, sandwiches or salads. Just put all the ingredients on the table and let everyone assemble their favourite combo.
