Fun, Easy & Good Tasting Recipes

Wow... time flies ! I have not posted in awhile but I have some great things to put up today:)

Her are some of my favorite simple recipes that are for us all who run out of time to put large amounts of time into our food. I believe we can all do these! These meet all calorie intake levels of a healthy snack 200-300 calories... ENJOY!!

PMS Trail mix

1/4 C Almonds
1/4 C mixed dried berries ( Trader Joe's)
2 squares dark chocolate, broken into small pieces
1/8 C no salt added peanuts ( if you like to add these)


Lettuce Turkey veggie wrap

2 red/green leaf or romaine leaves of lettuce
1 tbsp tomatoe & basil hummus (trader Joe's)
2-4 oz Sliced chicken or turkey meat
1/2 cucumber, red/yellow/orange/green pepper, or a roma tomatoe

spread the hummus on each leaf evenly, lay veggie's inside ( one's of your choice), lay one slice or evenly distribute the turkey/chicken inside lettuce... roll up and put a paper towel around to hold... place in your fridge for tomorrow's snack or in a baggie for snack on the go!!

I hope you enjoy these snack and add them to your fitness, weightloss, maintance diets, or even for my prego friends. They really give us NO EXCUSE not to choose healthy, plus have an amazing taste too!!
