The Adventures of a Foodaholic
A working mom learning how to create healthy habits, not restrictions, while enjoying all the food along the way
My typical breakfast consists of either just a bowl of cereal or a scoop of Shakeology in my coffee, but today I was craving something spicy and more filling. An egg sandwich on a bagel thin with onions and jalapenos sounded like it would hit the spot!
Chicken and sriracha are two of my favorite things ever! So naturally when I came across this recipe, I had to give it a try. Here is the link to the original recipe: http://www.marthastewart.com/964688/sriracha-glazed-chicken
Today was quite a day of meal prepping! First I headed out to Meijer with my shopping list in hand and mperks set to save me some money!
I’ve never made burrito bowls before, and they have always sounded amazing, so I decided now was as good as any time! I used this recipe I found as my inspiration (http://www.sixsistersstuff.com/2014/03/chicken-burrito-bowls.html) and made a few tweaks. I also cut the recipe down, as I only wanted to make two servings.
Tomorrow is my day off, so I am spending tonight going through recipes and figuring out what I want to make for the rest of the week.
Recently, I’ve begun to notice adverse effects to me eating processed foods. Because of this, I’ve been trying to eat clean. With that being said, I don’t stick to clean eating 100% of the time, but I try to prep my meals for work during the week so I am not tempted to pick up fast food. When it comes to the weekends, I try to make healthy meals for myself and Dan, but being as addicted to food as I am, I tend to let myself cave and cook something unhealthy, or even go out to eat.
While going through recipes, a couple things have caught my eye to add to my “must make” list for tomorrow.
On top of these recipes, I will be prepping a few different meals to last me through the week. Check back tomorrow to see these recipes, along with pictures, and to see my feelings on how they turned out!
