Hi Everyone!
Here's my menu plan for this week. If I don't do this ahead of time, I'll make poor choices when I get hungry.
While these aren't the healthiest, cleanest, or most whole foods, it's what I can do right now. You should've seen my menu a year ago! I'm the person who had a hard time switching to reduced fat from whole milk, and who, until recently, could not imagine eating brown rice or whole wheat bread.
So if you're a clean eater - that's awesome (and I'm a bit envious), but you'll probably just want to stop reading now. However, if you're struggling with what to eat or just wanting some ideas for your own plan - then maybe this will be of some help...
Breakfast:
Kashi Go Lean Crunch (Honey Almond Flax) w/Silk Almond Milk (Vanilla Unsweetened) w/ fruit
OR
Chobani Greek Yogurt w/mini dark choc chips & almond slivers w/fruit
Lunch:
Leftovers from night before
OR
Salad w/ turkey or chicken
Dinners:
-Turkey burger on whole wheat bun, baked sweet potato fries, green salad
-Chicken & Black Bean Burrito Bowl (recipe from MyFitnessPal: http://blog.myfitnesspal.com/2014/08/chicken-black-bean-burrito-bowls/ which came from 24carrotlife.com)
