Week 7 Meals: Quick & Easy
I'm all about keeping it quick, easy, & simple. I don't have time for crazy amounts of ingredients, excessive amounts of steps or hours in the kitchen. The last 7 weeks of following this plan have shown me that it does not have to be complicated for you to eat food that has a purpose; to fuel your workouts & get you results. Each of these meals were right on plan and are helping me to continue my journey to looking and feeling the best that I possibly can.
Hope you like them!
