It's the end of April, and that means I have been on, off, and then back on my journey of eating better several times! ;) Sound familiar??!
Thankfully it has been unseasonably cool this spring, so I still have time to get into shape for "shorts weather."
My plan is simple....eat right and exercise! Ok, easier said then done.
Well, I did pick up some organic produce and eggs from our local co-op. There should be some avocados as well, but they weren't on the truck so I'll be getting them next time. I also bought some organic strawberries and apples at the store this week...so we are stocked up!
Tonight we are having a big salad for dinner!
My weakness though is packaged snacks! I'm on a mission right now to find some healthy packaged snack ideas. And to help me, I'm going to use what a friend recommended to me yesterday. It's called Fooducate and is a FREE food grading system for your phone.
Once downloaded, you just scan the UPC of a food and it will be graded. You can change the settings to list specific items. Mine will show whether a food is vegetarian, vegan, contains GMOs, and more. What's even better is that it suggests healthier alternatives!
So here are some of our meals for the week:
Vegetable and Bean Soup
Big Vegetable and Fruit Salad
Spaghetti with Marinara Sauce
Homemade Pineapple Pizza
If you have any easy plant-based recipes I would love to hear them! I've been pinning several on Pinterest so I'm looking forward to trying some new meals in the next few weeks!
