Clean Eating Weight Loss Meal Plan 46

Clean Eating Weight Loss Meal Plan 46

Breakfast


This was one of the easiest breakfast to make--just slightly whisk eggs and pop them in a microwave. It also tasted fantastic. Hope you like.




Mid Morning Snack


Roasted Seaweed


(Try Annie Chun's here. They were DELICIOUS!)




Lunch

Stir Fry Chinese Leek and Tofu Slices

I prepared the leek and tofu by stir frying in extra virgin olive oil and splashing just a pinch of sea salt. The leek already has natural sweetness, which blended well with the salt. The tofu slices added both texture and protein.

I also laid the vegetable over a bed of organic brown rice. It was a delicious clean eating lunch.




Afternoon Snack

Banana-Strawberry-Orange Smoothie (get recipe here)

Awesome smoothie! It was sweet with strawberries and citrus-y with orange. You should certainly try it.

Get recipe at Clean Eating Snack Smoothie.





Dinner

Seared Tuna with Salad

I'm bummed about forgetting to record today's clean eating dinner recipe, because the tuna turned out amazing. We bought our pre-packaged tuna steak from Trader Joe's, but the Omaha Steakhouse Tuna Steaks work too. There should be instructions on the package. Ours took less than 30 minutes to prepare.


Find Omaha Steakhouse Yellowfin Tuna Steaks here.

Breakfast


Blueberry Grape Smoothie (get recipe here)


This smoothie was sweet and refreshing. It's a quick and healthy way to start the day.






Mid Morning Snack


Sweet Potato Tator Tots (from Taco Time)

Taco Time is a quick-service Mexican family restaurant that serves food made with fresh ingredients. Trust me, it's much healthier than Taco Bell.

These sweet potato tator tots were fresh and scrumptious--the perfect clean eating snack.





Lunch

Barley Noodle

To ensure that my kids consume enough vegetables each day, I must be creative about how to incorporate vegetables into their meals. Neither of them are big veggie eaters, but they love pasta, so vegetable pasta is popular amongst family meals.

Today's barley noodle was a fantastic blend of green onion, eggs, vegetable and grain, stir fried to scrumptious perfection. The kids loved it, and so did I.


If you're looking for vegetable pasta, Barilla makes an assortment of delicious vegetable pasta. It's one of my favorite brands. You can find them here.



Afternoon Snack

Fresh Melon Bowl



Dinner

Toasted Artisan Whole Wheat Bread with Fresh Mozzarella, and Broiled Chicken Salad

Today I bought a fresh loaf of Artisan whole wheat French bread from the local market. Love Artisan, don't you? They're made fresh daily, and taste so much better than those with preservatives.

I topped each piece of bread with fresh mozzarella slices, and toasted them in the oven, until cheese melted. Then, I added a pinch of paprika, ground black pepper and sea salt for taste. They were quick, easy and enjoyable.

For vegetable and protein, I broiled a piece of organic chicken breast that was rubbed with various herbs. I then chopped the chicken and added them to a bed of fresh salad.

Tonight's dinner was simple but delicious still. Most of all, it was clean. I hope it was a good clean eating dinner idea for you.









That's all for today's clean eating meal plan.

Breakfast


Whole Wheat Toast Topped with All-Natural Peanut Butter, Banana and Raspberries


Doesn't it look yum?






Mid Morning Snack


Tomatoes


Love tomatoes. They're easy and clean.





Lunch


Quinoa with Vegetables and Herbs


With higher protein, minerals, fiber, riboflaven, manganese and antioxidants, quinoa is one of the world's finest foods. It's also gluten-free and easy on the digestive system.


I love the way quinoa tastes. I also like that it's easy to cook.


Today's organic quinoa was decorated with vegetable and herbs for extra goodness and flavor. Of course, you can cook quinoa whichever way you like.






Afternoon Snack


Granola Mix with Nuts, Dried Fruits and Natural Brown Cane Sugar


I found this awesome mix from a local organic food store. It was quite tasty. You can make your own too, or try Bear Naked Granola Mix, which tastes just as good.





Dinner


Stir Fry Brussels Sprouts with Chicken (get recipe here)


I don't eat enough Brussels sprouts. I should. They're crunchy, sweet and nutritious. I've always liked cabbage, so naturally, I liked Brussels sprouts too. Tonight's clean eating dinner was fantastic. It was flavorful and healthy, and made a lovely dinner.

Breakfast


Homemade Blueberry Preserves Over Greek Yogurt


Sweet and delicious. Enjoy!



Mid Morning Snack


Brad's Raw Leafy Kale (get it here)


What a fantastic clean eating snack!


These vegan-friendly, GMO-free and super tasty "chips" have all the flavor and none of the bad stuff. Started by a guy (Brad) who's passionate about clean food, this snack is only one of the many veggie snacks he creates. However, they are my favorite, and lucky for me, they come in many flavors.


I highly recommend it!





Lunch


Buttery Shrimp Salad Over Avocado (get recipe here)


Clean Eating loves seafood--and this clean eater loves shrimp.


Today's clean eating lunch turned out fantastic! It was flavorsome with rich butter, sweet balsamic and wholesome avocado. It was such an easy and healthy meal that I had it the next day too.


Get the recipe at Clean Eating Lunch.





Afternoon Snack


Banana and Hard Boiled Egg White, with Sparkly Water




Dinner


Bison Burger with Steamed Vegetables


Our family went out to dinner, and this bison burger was from a neighborhood restaurant that serves only local and organic foods.


The bison burger was juicy and savory. Everyone's meal was good.


I don't have a recipe for the burger, but if you dine out tonight, I recommend that you visit local places that serve fresh, instead of national chains.
