I'm all about easy, healthy meals. My work weeks are hectic and it's so much easier to stick with my healthy eating style when I plan my meals. I like taking some time on the weekend to make a few dishes I can use throughout the week. Bonus when it's a dish that works well for any meal of the day. This option is high in fiber, protein, phytonutrients, and healthy fat and I eat this for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!
