Ever get bored of the same old meals – sticking to what is safe and clean? Put your chicken breasts and sweet potatoes aside, because I have your lunch, dinner, and bed time snack ready to go! I am not the creator of any of these, so unfortunately, I am unable to give credit where credit is due. These are things that I have come across over the years and have either adopted or altered to taste. A structured diet can get monotonous, so hopefully these easily made healthy alternatives will reignite your fitness flame!
