Hi, friends!
I did a huge grocery shopping this week with all sorts of delicious eats! (I’m a poet, and I didn’t even know it!)
Here’s this week’s meal plan:
- Sunday: Out to dinner
- Monday: Roasted spaghetti squash with meat sauce
- Tuesday: Lemon chicken and scalloped potatoes (recipe from Runner’s World Cookbook)
- Wednesday: Leftover lemon chicken with roasted broccoli and rice
- Thursday: Homemade pizza
- Friday: Wing it/leftovers
- Saturday: Out to dinner
Health News & Views
This chicken salad is so delicious, you’d never think it was a “light” recipe, but it has fewer calories and less fat than the traditional, mayo-laden kind. The secret? Swapping non-fat Greek yogurt for the mayonnaise and adding a flavorful, tangy honey mustard. Additionally, diced apples give this chicken salad a sweet flavor boost and sunflower seeds add a little bit of crunch.
Just combine the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Spread the chicken salad between two slices of whole-grain bread or add a big scoop on top of some mixed greens for a quick and easy meal!
