baby weight loss guidelines



Happy Monday everyone!  Hope you all had a great, refreshing weekend!  Ive been utilizing the chalk wall in our kitchen to write out our weekly meal plan and I love it!  I think I resisted because its hard to know on a certain day what youre going to want to eat, but I figure, get it all planned out and grocery shopped so you have something to eat and you can just switch the days around if you want.


Preparing weekend lunches is a favorite of mine.  Its really nice to enjoy a home-made meal if youre at the house to eat it:)  With all the weekend running around, sometimes eating while out is more convenient.  This Saturday, having completed the morning errands and getting home in time for lunch, I made a quinoa caprese salad with grilled chicken.  This is one of those easy-to-assemble meals that is packed with protein and flavor.


I start by grilling boneless, skinless chicken breasts in olive oil for a few minutes at the same time I boil the quinoa.  Quinoa cooks quickly, about 8 minutes.  I used 1 cup of quinoa and 2 cups of organic chicken broth to give it more flavor. 


Then, because the caprese ingredients are a favorite combo (tomato, basil, and mozzarella) I assembled them all together. 



Quinoa is a good source of fiber, magnesium, iron, calcium and fiber.  It has a slightly nutty flavor, but mainly takes on the flavors you cook it with.  It cooks quickly, in about 8 minutes.   Then I chopped the cherry tomatoes and mozzarella balls in half and tossed in the basil. 


I seasoned my salad with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and salt-free seasoning. 


A bright, refreshing (and filling) salad!


After lunch, I portioned the rest out into plastic containers for quick meals later on during the week.  


Have you tried quinoa- do you like it?

I finally completed all 12 weeks of the Live Fit challenge (yay!)  and will be bringing you the low down with my progress later this week- I need to get my body fat measured first:)
