Sample Meal Ideas

I have had several requests for me to post meal ideas or a sample of what my daily food intake looks like. I try to keep it consistent so my body knows what to expect. I have listed a sample food log and a list of good foods I enjoy for certain meals. I hope they help! Please let me know if you have any questions about any of them or want to know where to find them! :)

Food log for today:
Breakfast: (I eat this EVERY morning except for Mondays when I try to be Meatless on Mondays!)
3 Eggland's Best Eggs scrambled (I usually use egg beaters but we were out of them so I had to use regular eggs)
3 slices of Oscar Myer Center Cut Bacon (70 calories for 3 pieces!!!)
1 cup of Chobani Greek Yogurt with 1 tbsp of Walnuts mixed in

Morning Snack:
Fruit Smoothie-2 cups strawberries, 1 cup blueberries, 1 banana, 1 cup of plan Chobani Greek Yogurt, put in mixer with ice and blend. You can use any combination of fruits and it is SO GOOD!

Lunch:
Portabella Mushroom Pasta with whole wheat pasta noodles from SkinnyTaste.com

10 Kangaroo Sea Salt Pita Chips
