Hi, I’m Weis Dietitian Melissa Logan with the Weis HealthyBites tip of the week. Busy schedules happen, and that’s where smart pantry staples come in. Keeping nutritious basics on hand makes it easier to put meals together quickly:
- Canned beans and lentils for plant-based, heart smart protein and even some fiber
- Canned tomatoes and other vegetables to add color and nutrients to meals
- Canned tuna or salmon for heart-healthy omega-3 fats
- Soups and broths as easy meal starters and flavor boosters
Look for “no salt added” or “low sodium” options to support heart health.
