Now that we are well into 2016, I’ve made several healthy life changes, including regularly working out, and eating a healthier diet. It’s been really great so far, and I feel really good, have more energy, and have found it impacting my attitude in a positive way as well. My main struggle, is making sure I meal plan during the week, and sticking to that meal plan. Healthy Choice Simply Café Steamers have made lunch planning super simple, and I never feel guilty about having one for lunch!
I love the Healthy Choice Simply variety of Café Steamers because it’s the first and only meals featuring a tray-in-tray steam cooking method that separates ingredients during heating to unlock freshness you can see and taste. After you are done cooking them, you pour the sauce onto the meal, and it keeps it really fresh and juicy! They also have nearly a dozen meals, all with less than 310 calories and more than 18 grams of 100-percent natural protein in a variety of flavors, such as Meatball Marinara, Chicken Fried Rice, Grilled Chicken & Broccoli Alfredo, Chicken & Vegetable Stir Fry and Grilled Pesto & Vegetables. With 100 percent natural proteins and absolutely no artificial ingredient, and the affordable price tag of $3.29 or less, I can feel good about purchasing a bunch every week, and keeping them on hand for those busy day lunches or dinners.
With only 200 calories for this Southwestern Style Chicken bowl, you would easily toss it all into a tortilla or wrap and make it into a yummy burrito, or use some nice tortilla chips to scoop it up. Since it’s so healthy, you can add a little cheese to it too (my weakness!). Yum!
Back to the topic of meal planning, I love having a solid meal plan for the week ahead. I typically grocery shop on Sunday’s, for the coming week, and knowing exactly what I will be cooking really helps with my sanity and health. When you don’t have a solid meal plan, it’s really easy to run to the drive through, or grab take out, and that’s not always the healthiest for you. In hopes to motivate you to meal plan every week, I am including a FREE Weekly Meal Plan Printable! Just open up this graphic, and print it! I put mine into a cheap glass frame, and then use it like a dry erase board! It’s super simple, and it keeps meal planning easy! This way I know what my weekly plan is and I have it displayed on my hutch in the kitchen.

You guys……I have the most excellent Mac & Cheese recipe for you today; Spicy Jalapeno Mac & Cheese. Now, full disclosure, I started making this recipe 2 years ago, and it took a bit to perfect. Once I did perfect it, I knew I had to share it will y’all…but, then, for whatever reason, it kind of fell by the wayside. Now, since 2016 started, I have been trying to eat really healthy, and I felt like maybe I shouldn’t share this, because it is so NOT healthy…but, you know what? Even when you are being health conscious, you should still treat yourself and indulge once in a while on the things you love most. In this case, delicious Mac & Cheese.
Now that the big game is right around the corner, I have been thinking up some delicious recipes to bring to the party we attend every year. I feel like dips always go a long way, and people love dipping pretty much everything, so I whipped up a delicious Sriracha Ranch Dip! I even made a video to show you exactly how to make it (scroll down to bottom for video)!
