Avocado Egg Salad

So in eating healthy I'm finding that I'm obsessed with eggs and avocado.  I try to enjoy them together once a week.  They are so good together!

Today's lunch was an egg salad pita made with guacamole instead of mayo.  Oh my was it good.  Recipe was so simple too!

1/2 whole wheat pita

1 whole hard boiled egg and 1 extra hard boiled egg white

1/2 a 100 cal pack of guacamole 

Mix together the eggs and guacamole and put inside the pita.  I used smaller pitas so I got enough egg salad to fill both halves.  So I ate one today and I will eat one tomorrow too.

I enjoyed it with fresh fruit, rice cakes and salsa, a small laughing cow 25 cal cheese wedge and some celery!

Quinoa Why Have I Waited So Long

I have seen and heard so many people talk and post about Quinoa lately.  I kept saying I must try this but never tried any.  Until today!  Oh my......what was I waiting for?  This stuff is awesome!  So yummy and healthy too!

I thought it was going to be hard to fix too.  Nope easy peasy.  I boiled 1/4 cup in chicken broth for about 15 minutes.  Fluffed it with a fork after it boiled.  While it was boiling I chopped the tops off three big tomatoes and scrapped the insides out and discarded them.  I chopped the tops up and mixed in a little bit of cheddar shredded cheese and some grated Parmesan.  After the quinoa was boiled I added it to the tomato/cheese mix and stuffed the tomatoes.  I baked them for about 15 minutes at 350.  Soooooo good.  I had some marinated mushrooms and green beans too. I'm saving the third tomato for a snack tomorrow!  I can not wait to see what I'm going to make next with quinoa!  Stay tuned as I will post those creations here too!  

Healthy Bento Box Lunch

I'm so excited to have finally found a bento box.  Or what I consider a bento box.  I've been wanting to pack cute little lunches for myself and my little girl.  Today was my first day using it.  With snow days all last week it sat staring at me from the counter.  I was so excited that I had my Shakeology for breakfast  so I could have my bento box lunch at work.

I put fruits, veggies, protein, dairy and a healthy fat in it.  Celery, tomatoes, mushrooms, with a little bit of guacamole, strawberries, grapes, a hard boiled egg and a cheese wedge.  It was yummy and every bit as exciting as I hoped it would be.

I got the bento box at Target for around $7 I think.

Happy Valentines Day

Pink Heart Pancakes!  I've seen many posts where people make pink pancakes with food coloring.  Yuck!  I go a healthier route, beets!  I purée beets and keep them in individual containers in the freezer and put them in the fridge the night before I need them.  In the morning they are thawed out and ready to add to pancake mix.  The heart shapes can either be done by carefully pouring into heart shapes (I managed a few this way) or by cutting them out with a cookie cutter after making the pancakes.  I topped of our pink pancakes with heart shaped strawberries!  Yummy and healthy!

Chicken and avocado sandwich on Portabella Bun

Nothing like clean eating!  The other day I roasted a whole chicken in the crock pot.  So what's a girl to do the next night for dinner but have a chicken sandwhich.  I didn't want it on bread.  I wanted it healthier!  So I said hey I've got portabella's in the fridge.  So I took some chicken and sliced avocado and put it on two portabella's.  Had a side salad with salsa as my dressing and some sliced carrots.  Was it filing?  Oh yes it was!  I couldn't even eat the whole mushroom bun!  I love healthy eating!
