What I eat in a day!

Hey dolls,

It can be hard to eat healthy when you have a super busy life, so I thought I’d share what I eat in a day! Obviously it varies but most days are similar to this! I also try to drink 2-3 litres of water a day.

Breakfast for me is so important, if I don’t start the day right it is unlikely my day will be productive. Breakfast can vary from scrambled eggs to overnight oats or my fave quick and easy yoghurt, fruit and granola. I love the Light & Free yoghurts, grab whatever fruit I have in the fridge or fruit bowl and top it with a handful of Jordan’s low sugar granola for a bit of crunch.

Lunch is always the meal I struggle with because I get bored of eating the same thing, throughout the winter I had soup pretty much everyday but now the sun is out salad season is back!

This is my absolute favourite salad (apart from your classic caesar!) and so simple. To make my Chicken Pesto salad I just fry some chicken in fry lite with salt and pepper, mix 1tsp of pesto with the same of light mayo, chop some cucumber, throw some salad leaves in a bowl and add a few croutons. I also needed to use up my strawberries so chopped them up with an apple for a sweet treat!

 

At work I always get peckish in the afternoon so have a range of snacks in my snack drawer from rice cakes to Fibre One bars! I recently discovered Fibre One popcorn bars and OMG they are amazing!

Cooking dinner is definitely my favourite meal, I love mixing different flavours. One of my go to meals is Soy, ginger and garlic salmon with brown rice and greens. Again the greens always change depending on what is in the fridge. Sometimes, I will make some extra and have the rest for lunch the next day!
