We successfully made it through week one of the meal plan and I am starting to feel like myself again! Slowly but surely I am starting to get my groove back in the kitchen and I hope you are too! I absolutely loved getting messages from y’all last week about how you were loving week one of the meal plan and I think you are going to love this week just as much! I am a firm believer in the fact that you don’t have to give up your favorite foods or eat just salads when eating healthy! Instead I believe in eating real foods that are homemade with no yucky ingredients that will leave you feeling satisfied and happy! Sound good to you?
We had the best weekend guys. The weather was gorgeous, we hung out outside literally all day on Friday and Saturday and it was just one of those perfect weekends that you don't ever want to end. I am always excited for a new week/fresh start, but I have to say that I am a little sad to see this particular weekend come to a close! However, with a new week and fresh start, we also get back to our favorite weekly recipes that are healthy, full of nutrients, and keep us going all day long! We usually rotate through a few favorite weekday breakfasts, but one recipe that I continue to make over and over is my blueberry vanilla oatmeal!
Okay so I just realized that all of my last recipes have been all about fruit. I guess that's because the heat index in Houston has been 104 degrees lately and fruit is my favorite snack of choice when it is hot outside! The fruit that is produced at this time of year is one of summer's greatest qualities if you ask me, and they just so happen to be all of my favorites! Right now I'm all about sweet cherries and have been eating them in my smoothies, plain-jane by themselves, and even in popsicles! My cherry and vanilla yogurt granola pops are healthy and delicious and, the best part, they are perfectly suitable for breakfast!
