Build-your-own meals help because everyone can customize. Taco bowls, pasta bowls and burger bowls let me add vegetables and protein while others keep it simple. It avoids the feeling that healthy eating is being forced on everyone.
I stopped trying to replace everything. I add a salad or vegetables to whatever the family is eating. Pizza night still happens, but I eat two slices with a big salad instead of four slices alone. Less fighting, better habits.
