Clean Eating Weight Loss Meal Plan 21


Breakfast

Egg and Feta Wrap (recipe from this link)

This wrap was quick and tasty--perfect for breakfast. Love combining feta and eggs, because feta adds a natural saltiness. This was one of my favorite wraps, and I hope you like it too.




Mid Morning Snack

Walnut-Stuffed Dates (recipe here)

These were crunchy and sweet. Loved them! 

Not sure about you, but I have a sweet tooth, and these dates certainly satisfied my cravings.  You can use a different type of date, but I prefer medjool dates, because they are sweeter and softer than other kinds.

Again, get recipe here.





Lunch

Simple Shrimp & Avocado Salad (recipe here)

This salad was a refreshing idea! Loved the combination of shrimp and avocado, and the slight balsamic flavor tasted lovely too. 

The salad took little time to make--about five minutes or so--and was absolutely delicious. Everyone likes a quick and tasty lunch. I hope you enjoy the recipe as much as I did.

Afternoon Snack

Rainier Cherries

Rainier cherries are popular where I live--around the Seattle area. They were developed in 1952 at Washington State University, and are a across between Bing cherries and Van Cultivar. They are lighter in color, with a yellow-ish tint, and are considered premium type of cherry.

I prefer Rainier cherries over Bing because they are sweeter and juicier. They made a delectable afternoon snack.

Dinner

Stir Fry Ginger Pork (recipe from this link)

There's been debate about pork not considered as clean eating. I'd like to express my opinion that pigs are among the cleanest of animals. The reason why they roll around in dirt is to keep themselves cool and protect themselves from getting a sunburn. As long as the pork you use is from pigs that eat clean, natural and organic food, you can consider pork as clean eating.

Today's stir fry ginger pork is a traditional Asian dish that my family makes all the time. It has the sweetness of oyster sauce, as well as the mild spiciness of ginger. 

Great flavor! I highly recommend it.

Clean Eating Weight Loss Meal Plan 20


Breakfast

Clean Eating French Toast (recipe here)

AWESOME breakfast!

It didn't taste any different from regular French toast, except it was clean eating. It was also easy to make. You should absolutely try it.




Mid Morning Snack

Banana Slices with Freshly-Ground Almond Butter

I normally use peanut butter as a topping, but almond butter works well too. This was a fantastic snack. It was sweet, tasty and satisfying. You'll like it.




Lunch

Grape Almond Spinach Chicken Salad (click here for recipe)

I like combining various flavors. How about you?

Today's clean eating lunch mixes sweet grapes with savory chicken and wholesome almonds. Top everything over a healthy bed of spinach, and a healthy, quick clean eating salad was done.

Find the recipe at Clean Eating Lunch Idea.



 Afternoon Snack

Strawberry Frozen Greek Yogurt

Yummy treat!


Dinner

Curry Chicken Salad (from this recipe)

Curry is such a delectable and fragrant flavor. Also, it goes with anything. I love using it in recipes--and especially recipes with chicken.

Today's curry chicken salad was refreshing and savory. It was certainly different. Now I know curry has a forceful flavor, so I toned it down by adding grapes. The mix of sweet and spicy worked like magic. 

The meal was flavorful and enjoyable. If you want to try it, here's the recipe:

Stacked Tomato & Mozzarella Salad – Now 100% Mozzarella Free!

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with using a nice, fresh mozzarella in your Caprese salad, but once or twice a summer, you simply must treat yourself to the natural wonder that is burrata cheese.

Comparing mozzarella and burrata is a little unfair, as burrata is significantly richer and creamier. It’s not like comparing apples and oranges; it’s more like apples and supermodels. In fact, burrata means “buttered,” which is really all you need to know.

Like I said in the video, if you do use burrata, please try it “as is,” before pouring over any vinegar. The subtle sweetness of this mildly tangy cheese is a delicate flower; so don’t crush it with a heavy hand.

Burrata used to be a specialty item, but I now see it next to the fresh mozzarella at all of your nicer grocery stores. While it will cost a little more, and may take a drive across town to find, I believe you'll find the extra effort well worth it. I hope you give this a try soon...before it snows. Enjoy!


Ingredients for 1 serving:
1 perfect vine-ripened tomato (don’t even bother using a supermarket tomato!)
4-6 tablespoons burrata cheese, or fresh mozzeralla
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
flaky sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and torn basil to taste

Dinner

Creamy Tomato Sauce Over Chicken Breast (recipe here)

The sauce was delicious. It also goes with anything. Today I chose to spread it over all-natural baked chicken breast, and the meal tasted incredible. It was also easy to make, and therefore a perfect dinner idea for the weekdays.
