Weekend Foods

Let's be real here everyone eats out every now and then. It is always fun to meet friends for food. Sometimes it is only convenient to swing by and pick something up. We are going to share with you all some of the healthier alternatives when you eat out. 

First meal out and about was at one of the greatest restaurants Chick-fil-a.

Katie and I were in a pickle and needed to grab a bite to eat after a Kettle Bell workout 

(Which let me tell you kettle bell workouts are not any joke. They are the real deal.)

We swung by and started looking at the menu and Chick-fil-a has so gracious placed their calorie count on their menu board. We found a great alternative getting some greens and chicken. The grilled chicken cool wrap! It was less than 400 calories and a great meal. We really enjoyed it and it fills you up to.

Another meal out this weekend was at On The Border. I'm just gonna get real for a minute and let you know that I love Mexican food. Here are some tips to eating healthy at Mexican Restaurants. 

- Avoid Cheese dip. Its just too much

- Avoid Flour tortillas

- Eat Fish

I had the fish tacos with black, not refried, beans, and it was so good. Let the spices make the tacos tasty and not the sour cream or salt.

Let me know of any healthy tips to eating out you may have. 

Greens are Good

BREAKFAST:

This is a great simple meal to make for a breakfast or any meal.

I use a product called Juice Plus Complete. They have two flavors: Vanilla or Chocolate
It is a great source of protein and fiber. Containing 11-13g of protein
Juice Plus+ Complete is a highly convenient “whole foods” based vegan powder blend that not only provides plenty of vitamins and minerals but also a phytonutrient boost. It is also 100% natural plant based.

- I fill up my cup I want to drink out of half way with Soy milk (you can use any milk you    like) or Almond milk.
- I then put in a scoop of Juice Plus Complete.
- Then spinach, about a cup or two.
- Then kale, about a cup or two.
- Then a tablespoon of natural peanut butter. 
- Then a teaspoon of cinnamon.
- Then ice...user discretion for smoothness

Blend it all together and add ice as needed. 

Now you have got a great tasting...great for you meal replacement shake. ENJOY IT.
