What to eatttt

I'm not a good cook so my parents and I eat out a lot. My Momma is handicap and Dad works a lot so we never really have a good meal. I want to start eating better for the baby. I'm 19 weeks and 5 days! I do snack On fruit but that's about it besides delivery pizza or fast food or panera or olive garden. Haha. Do you guys have any ideas on stuff that's good for me and baby but also tastes yummy that's easy to cook!!? I hate any type of seafood FYI! Hahaha help please!

The salads in the bag are not much diff then making them yourself, and if you do eat out lots try staying away from greasy foods cause thats how alot of woman get gullstones when pregnant and believe me you dnt want those lol.

Thank you guys!! I had no idea about the eating to much fruit thing, so that's good to know!  And the salad you can buy in a bag, is that kind okay? Or do you just buy a thing of lettuce and chop it up??

Protien is super important to build a healthy placrnta. Meat, eggs (eggs are like, the perfect food!), nuts, cheese are all super good for you to eat. A simple meal of a fried hamburger patty with cheese lettuce tomato etc is easy and healthy. Whatever you can do to incorporate a good serving of protien into every meal, and of course veggies as previously suggested, you'll be doing well. Watch your sugar and carb intake and don't eat TOO much fruit. It's good for you but it IS high-carb/high sug so it shouldn't be a MAIN part of your diet.
