January 16th 21 Day Fix Meal plan for 1200-1499 Calorie Range




Meal planning does take time BUT it's so worth it come the week when time is crunched and every minute counts.  I love not having to think or run around picking up ingredients for our meals during the week because it's so much more efficient to focus on it, plan it all out and then execute it.  

I woke up this morning and bade Blueberry Baked Oatmeal and next up I'l be making Shredded Chicken Chili for my lunches this week.  I'm really looking forward to trying this recipe!!  Then we are planning a walk to Kinsol Trestle this afternoon!  This week I actually did my grocery shopping on Saturday evening and basic meal planning before I left so that I could get a head start on it all.  So glad I did that because now I can just prep for the week and not have to brave costco on Sunday!!!

Here is my meal plan for this week!

1 tsp. all-natural almond butter 
1 scoop Strawberry or Tropical Strawberry Vegan Shakeology
8 fl. oz. ice 

Place milk, water, almond butter, Shakeology, and ice in blender; cover. Blend until smooth.



Tuna Melt on Roasted Portobello Mushrooms
(2 Servings, 1 each) 
Container Equivalents (per serving): 1 Green 1/2 Red 1/2 Blue 

Ingredients
2 large portobello mushroom caps, remove stems and gills
1/2 tsp. olive oil
3/4 cups solid white tuna, packed in water, well-drained (about 8 oz.)
1/4 medium ripe avocado, mashed 
1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice 
1/2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard 
1 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
2 tomato slices
1/2 blue container shredded white cheddar

1. Preheat oven to 425° F. 2. Place mushrooms on a baking sheet smooth side down. Brush evenly with oil. Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, turning after 10 minutes. Mushrooms will be softened. Set aside. 3. While mushrooms are baking, combine tuna, avocado, lemon juice, mustard, parsley, and garlic powder in a medium bowl; mix well. 4. Top each mushroom evenly with tuna mixture, tomato, and cheese. 5. Return mushrooms to oven. Bake for 3 to 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted; serve immediately. TIPS: • Avoid washing mushrooms but if you have to, use as little water as possible. Mushrooms absorb water and get very watery while cooking. • A clean brush (like a paintbrush) or cheesecloth is a good way to clean mushrooms.
