Healthy Doesn't Mean Boring

Hello everyone!  It's Sunday which means it's time for this girl to cook.  Today was simple and my kitchen smelled sooo good because of all the veggies I was grilling today.  Eating healthy doesn't mean you have to be boring.  

I kept it simple again this week because my weekends have been full of enjoying friends and family and the beautiful weather.  So today I grilled up tomatoes, onions, green peppers, and mushrooms.  Add some salmon to that and I have a yummy dinner to look forward to.  

What are your favorite vegetables?  Grab some at the grocery store and grill them up with some salt, pepper, a little garlic, and you'll have an easy thing to grab for lunch or dinner.

Another way to keep things simple is to buy frozen vegetables.  I know they are not as good as fresh vegetables but it saves me time and money when I buy them for my lunches.  Lately, I've just been buying frozen broccoli for my lunches.  This week, my lunch will includes eggs, broccoli, and sweet potatoes.  

Easy snack options that are always in my fridge and fruits (mainly apples, berries, and bananas) and nuts (almonds are my go to).  I also always have my Shakeology on hand; I drink this daily to get my vitamins and superfoods in for the day.

So check your fridge this week and make sure it is stocked with fresh fruit, veggies, and protein that will nourish your body and have you feeling better.

Make it a good week!

Meal Prep Sunday!

Here's a look at what I prepped for this upcoming week!  I am currently following the 21 Day Fix Extreme meal plan.  The times are rough estimates :)  I try to eat 2-3 hours between my meals and I always pair my fruit with a fat.  My main meals consist of protein, vegetables, and carbs; I also drink Shakeology to curb cravings and get my vitamins in.  Here's to a good, healthy week!  And here's to adjusting to a new schedule and making morning workouts my new routine again :)
