134. My Food Philosophy: How My Approach to Eating has Evolved, Grocery Budgets, & Eating Healthy

In this episode of Don't Depend on Daddy, I’m breaking down my entire food philosophy - from how I transitioned from being vegan for 9 years to reintroducing fish, to exactly how I plan, prep, and budget my meals each week. I’ll walk through my 3-2-1 grocery system, how I approach meal prepping without wasting food, and what I actually eat in a typical week as someone who values both health and balance. If you’re trying to eat healthy, save money on groceries, and stop feeling overwhelmed by meal prep - this one’s for you.


Listen for:

👉🏻 My plant-based to pescatarian transition

👉🏻 How I plan 3 dinners, 2 lunches, and 1 breakfast each week

👉🏻 Grocery budgeting tips and being an “ingredient household”

👉🏻 Why I make most of my food (and bread!) from scratch
