Notes

This is a filling salad that will get you through any busy morning.

By pre-roasting some extra sweet potatoes, and quinoa on meal prep day you save so much time and making this breakfast salad is a breeze

We did not count salad dressing in the nutritional information. You will need to factor any dressing as additional calories.

If trying to stay below a 500 calorie limit with salad dressing simply omit the quinoa

Mason Jar Omelet

Mason Jar Omelets taste just like their traditional cousins. Just get over the fact that they just don't look as beautiful as a pan omelet. Mason Jar Omelets are the easiest way to have a hearty egg breakfast without all the mess of cleaning up a pan. We always add in leftover cooked peppers and onions, however any cooked veggies you have on hand can work. At 1.14 per serving you are slaying your food budget.

Sunshine Bowl w/ Spicy Mango Vinaigrette

This is called a Sunshine bowl because of all its monochromatic color. The flavors all pair so nicely together to form a perfect lunch or dinner bowl. This recipe assumes that you have already meal prepped the sweet potatoes and the chicken for other recipes. It is quick to put together since you are basically just assembling the bowl.

Summer Fruit and Granola Bowl

An easy way to pull together a last minute breakfast. All you need are some pre cut canteloupe melon chunks and a handfull or your favoriite berries. We used raspberries and blueberries but strawberries or blackberries would work just as well. Actually I think the blackberry and the cantaloupe would compliment each other nicely. You can use your favorite yogurt, I used plain greek because it has no added sugar. For sweetness beyond the fruit and granola you can add a little local honey.
