Free Inquiry – Getting Rolling..

For my free inquiry blog posts I have decided to focus on meal prepping. Last semester I found myself often at a loss for what to make for dinner that could also double as lunch the next day. It was a struggle for me to find recipes that I enjoyed making that would be as good reheated later that week. My goal for my inquiry project is to work towards improving my organization and planning my meals in advance. I hope that by doing this I will be eating better more well balanced meals and learn some new recipes. I would also like to try and experiment with my recipes to learn how to make delicious meals that are perfect for busy weeks that I do not have time to cook during.

This project also connects to the BC curriculum. It is important to understand what we eat and how to balance our diets. I am going to try and make well balanced meals that hit the requirements. Students learn about nutrition during their PHE classes. Cooking can also be related to the math curriculum by working with fractions and adjusting recipes to your preferences and the amount you want to make.
