Meal Prep, The Key To Success

The key to a successful meal plan is simple, meal prep. Making sure that you plan your meals for the day or the week can be the difference between eating what is good for you and eating what is convenient. So plan ahead and you will save money as well and prevent yourself from regretting your choices for the day!

Chicken And Greens At It's Best!

This meal is another one of me and my friends favourites. The best thing about it is it only takes a couple of minutes! 

It has four easy components; 

1. Chicken lightly dusted in chilli crumbs and cooked in a pan without oil. 
2. A small dollop of beetroot dip, fresh or from the store. 
3. Beans steamed or cooked in hot water for a few minutes. 
4. Asparagus and cashews cooked in a pan until the cashews are brown. 

Give this quick meal a try! 

One of my Favourite Snacks!

When it comes to eating healthy, yummy and fun, thefitnessrecipes.com has been my go to page! They have a number of delicious and amazing healthy snacks that everyone will love! I have made these snacks for a number of friends and family and they all loved them!

One of my favourite recipes is the Tuna Balls. I normally add these to a tasting plate with dip, however I have also found they make a delicious meal when served with veggies or salad.

Give this recipe a go and let me know your thoughts, they are as yummy as they sound I promise!
