Diet

My diet is interesting and full of weird combinations of ingredients. Here instead of posting recipes, I’ll be adding pictures of different meals I make each week, along with how to easy copy and try on your own! I dare you =]

A nice light lunch idea

Light Tuna Salad

Grab a plate and mixed about two cups of dark leafy greens of your choice. In this case I used red leaf lettuce, arugula, and spinach. Chop up one small bell pepper of your choice. In a seperate bowl, add can of tuna (or chicken, salmon, turkey, etc), 1 heaping spoon full of fat free cream cheese, 1 tbspn of extra virgin olive oil, chopped tomatoes and chopped green onions. Pour tuna mixture on to salad and enjoy!

A very filling lunch or dinner

Salmon Broccoli Slaw

This is really easy to make. Grab a bag of pre made broccoli slaw, mix in one large pouch of salmon (or tuna, etc) and pour onto a lightly olive oil sprayed pan with medium heat. Mix around until slaw is softened, then add 2-3 tbsp of medium or mild salsa.

Mix around till slaw is soft and salsa is well mixed. Then serve!

Breakfast or a good pre or post work snack.

English Poached Muffin

I love to make breakfast interesting, and I love wheat english muffins even more. It is my one daily source of carbs from bread.

Toast a whole wheat english muffin. In a pan, drop one whole egg and two egg whites into boiling water for poaching. Cook until desired. (I hate running yoke). Prepare english muffins with 1 tsp of honey mustard on each side of muffin. Split a leaf of lettuce or spinach onto muffin, along with tomatoes.

Once eggs are finished cooking, drain and pat water off softly (to prevent from sliding off muffin and onto the floor!) and set on muffin. Enjoy!

*You can lightly fry (with olive oil or light cooking spray) or poach eggs.

Another Salad!

Turkey Stripped Salad

Another salad! Here is much the same salad mixture of red leaf lettuce, spinach and arugula. Slice    up one bell pepper. What I did here was slice up 4oz of lean, low sodium deli turkey into stripes and  place on top of salad.

I added about 1 tbsp of balsamic vinegar too, but you choose another light dressing.
