Lunch- Making a healthy change

Starting off the week on a healthy food with a fabulous Vegetarian Fitspirational Lunch!!

Think you can’t eat a grilled cheese sandwich and fries without eating unhealthy fried foods? WRONG!

This meal contains protein, fiber, calcium, iron and WONDERFUL nutritious ingredients! I made this AT HOME in less than 10 mins. he healthiest “fast food” you can imagine.

What you see:

1. Toasted Cheddar and Avocado grilled cheese sandwich on oatnut bread, with a bit of butternut squash aioli sauce 
2. Side Ceazar salad
3. Sweet Potato fries (BAKED not fried) *Note- Did you know Sweet potatoes are ranked one of the highest nutritional vegetable on the planet? This is because of their high protein and vitamin content!
4. Glass of water

Eating healthy does NOT have to be boring! Get creative, have FUN in the kitchen finding new wonderful ways to incorporate health into your meals! 

I made this meal healthy by:

• Using Oatnut bread instead of starchy white bread
• Having baked sweet potato fries instead of normal greasy fried french fries
• Adding a salad
• Having water instead of soda

APPLY what you just read to YOUR life. Today when you make your next meal, stop and think what you can do to make it healthier!

Bring your food with you to college!

If you’re a studying/working girl like me with an outrageously busy schedule, finding time to eat is SO rough.

You know you've been here- we all have:

Sometimes you go hours and hours without eating, skipping meals left and right until you get to the point where you’re feeling faint from not eating and then result to the worst thing possible.. FAST FOOD…. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Well guess what? 

Fruit is the fastest food you can possibly eat, and you don’t even have to drive through anywhere to get it! 

Planning and packing a lunch/ snacks to keep with you throughout the day is a GREAT idea for everyone and anyone.

These fabulous glad ware separators are perfect for putting together a wonderful healthy lunch the night before your day of hectic activities.

Don’t let hunger be another thing making you stressed.

Eating frequently not only makes your metabolism faster, it also keeps your energy level high as well as your ability to give focus to the activities that you are doing (such as college classes.)

So grab some glad ware and get packing tonight!

3 minute (at home) Italian Salad!

You are ALWAYS telling me you want quick and healthy meals to eat so I’ve decided to start a strain of posts JUST dedicated to QUICK, EASY, and HEALTHY meals all under 10 minutes!

To kick off these posts, here is a delicious home made Italian salad that I literally threw together in 3 minutes.

You can use what ever veggies you have in your fridge, but I decided to go with the basics:

• Cherry tomatoes
• Carrots
• Cucumbers
• Dark leafy greens
• And non-Fat Italian Dressing

Wash them, slice them, toss them and POOF you’re done!

There is no need to make things complicated when you’re short on time. Get creative, but if you can’t just come to me and I’ll be all the creativity for both of us :)

Enjoy, and remember Fast food does NOT have to come from McDonalds! 

3 minutes is about as fast as it gets and this is PACKED with nutrients!
