I’ve been procrastinating big time over here… we’re halfway through the week… with moving day Saturday… and I we have yet to pack a single box. I reached out for some tips and tricks over on instagram last night, and the suggestions have been so so helpful!…. I guess these next few days will be a little wild… which is always what happens when one procrastinates….
All that to say, it’s easy to reach from unhealthy food when time seems crunched…. so I always appreciate having easy meal options on hand. Today I’m sharing with you 5 days worth of delicious, clean, and healthy eats…. most of which I’ll be using this week as well…..
MONDAY:
Breakfast: Egg Scramble- 1 egg + 1 cup egg whites, sautéed spinach + mushrooms, topped with salsa verde, 1/4 avocado, pico de gallo.
Snack: Apple slices with cinnamon
Lunch: Tuna Salad- 1 can of Safe Catch Tuna… mixed with arugula, dried cranberries, Persian cucumbers, 1/2 cup quinoa, and Primal Kitchen Honey Mustard Dressing.
Snack: Beet Chips + Hummus
Dinner (featured above): Carrot Spirals + Meatballs- Trader Joe’s carrot spirals mixed with red lentil pasta (cook according to directions). Cook meatballs seasoned with oregano, garlic power, and pepper… cook on stovetop until done. Combine with noodles + top with marinara sauce… we added steamed broccoli.
Dessert: Pressed Juicery Freeze
TUESDAY:
Breakfast: Chia Pod vanilla chia pudding topped with Purely Elizabeth granola + raspberries
Snack: 100 calorie Perfect Bar
Lunch: Some left over dinner from the previous evening… yet I topped mine with some ground turkey.
Snack: Apple slices with almond butter + cinnamon
Dinner (featured above): Shrimp Curry (one of my favorites)
Dessert: Fresh mixed berries
WEDNESDAY:
Breakfast: Oatmeal Bake
Snack: Hardboiled Egg + Apple Slices
Lunch (see above): Directions- Cook cauliflower rice according to these instructions. Mix together with 1/2 cup brown rice, 1/2 cup of Trader Joe’s lentils + salsa verde. Top with arugula, avocado, pico de gallo, + Trader Joe’s green goddess dressing.
Snack: Banana Chocolate Smoothie (I replaced the cauliflower with frozen, and seeded, zucchini to achieve the same consistency)
Dinner: Cauliflower fried rice with two runny eggs….
THURSDAY:
Breakfast: Same as Tuesday
Snack: Hard Boiled Egg + apple slices
Lunch: Veggie Wrap- Siete Tortilla topped with hummus, arugula, 1/4 cup lentils, 4 Hilary’s Eat Well Bites, shredded carrots + cabbage, topped with Trader Joe’s green goddess dressing. Side of kale chips.
Snack: Sliced bell peppers + guacamole
Dinner: Turmeric Salmon + Cauliflower Gnocchi- Season salmon with lemon juice, pepper, sea salt, + turmeric… bake for 16-18 minutes at 425°. Prepare asparagus with a little avocado oil, garlic powder, + pepper… bake in oven with salmon for the last 10 minutes. While salmon is cooking, start cauliflower gnochii (from Trader Joe’s) and prepare according to instructions. I recommend you completely skip the water step, instead cooking with avocado oil the entire time…. stir frequently). Once cooked, use Trader Joe’s green goddess dressing, or a pesto sauce….
FRIDAY:
Breakfast: Smoothie (was so hot from my morning run it was the only thing that sounded good)… topped it with granola.
Snack: 100 calorie Perfect Bar
