Healthy Meals
Weekly Healthy Meals & Menu Plan. Post Thanksgiving
If you over indulged during the Thanksgiving holiday(or any holiday really), then it's time to get back on track with smaller and less caloric meals, more vegetables and fruits. If you didn't eat too much, well kudos and keep on keeping on!
Breakfast: Pumpkin oats. I'm nuts for Libby's Canned Pumpkin.

Sat & Sun (1) slice of Pepperidge Farms Natural Honey Flax Bread, a few pieces of fruit + Voskos Plain Non-fat Greek Yogurt. This yogurt is deliciously thick, creamy, and surprisingly filling! I add a bit of Truvia to mine for sweetness.

Lunch
Mon: Salad with dried cranberries & left-over turkey.
Tue: V8 SouthWestern Corn Soup + Alexia Artisan Breads Whole Grain Wheat Rolls with Flaxseeds (1 piece).
Wed: Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers Roasted Chicken Marsala.
Thu: Ham sandwich (leftovers from Thanksgiving + make it thick with lettuce, tomatoes & crunchy cucumbers) + Green Monster Smoothie (my recipe: 2 cups spinach + 1 banana (frozen) + 1 cup almond milk + 1/2 cup fresh cranberries - all blended together) + Fruit salad (canteloupe + grapes + apples).
Fri: Cedarlane Beans Rice & Cheese Style Burrito.
Sat: Turkey Quesadilla (made with Kraft Natural Part-Skim Mozzarella which rocks! AND it has less calories and fat than the fake stuff) + Salad (same as Monday).
Sun: Chicken of the Sea Salmon Steak in a Mandarin Orange Glaze + Green Giant Simply Steam Baby Vegetable Medley.
Dinner

Mon: Applesauce Chicken (Musselmann's Unsweetened Applesauce makes pure deliciousness ... recipe coming soon) + mashed potatoes and steamed brocolli.
Tue: Chicken or turkey fried rice (using left overs). Here's an easy recipe from Fit and Flabless.
Wed: Curry Turkey Salad (a la Simply Recipes)
Thu: Broiled Salmon + Birds Eye Steamfresh Asian Medley Frozen Vegetables
Fri: Amys Roasted Vegetable Pizza
Sat: Soup (made with the ham bone left over from Thanksgiving + kidney beans + potatoes (regular and sweet) - this is something we did after Christmas in Jamaica).
Sun: Finish off left-overs from the week - or try this Corn and Black Bean Quinoa Salad from Closet Cooking.
Snacks

* Keep snacking to a minimum this week by incorporating protein shakes. Try Nature's Plus Spiru-tein High Protein Energy Meal Simply Natural Original Vanilla Protein Powder - either make it with water (and something for sweetness) or try it in a Green spinach smoothie.
* Almondina Choconut Almond Cookies + Celestial Seasonings Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride Tea = the perfect end to a hectic day.
