Who says healthy meals have to be boring?! I am fairly new to healthy eating and I am sure that a few others are too--- please share your recipes and meal ideas here to give us "newbies some ideas"!!! I took a few ideas from Steph's post from last week and can't wait to see and hear about your meals today!!!
I have been wanting to try to make my own protein bars to eliminate added calories, sugar, and preservatives. Here are a couple of recipes that I am going to try in the near future...please let me know if you may have found a "better" recipe! I plan to make these very soon!

-4 tbsp natural peanut butter
-1/4 cup water
-stevia or natural sweetener (optional)
-2 tbspn coca powder (optional)
Directions
-makes 4 servings
-mix all ingredients in a large bowl and stir. At first it may not seem like it is enough water, but keep stirring and it will eventually become a sticky blob of dough. Add 1 tbsp of water at a time if needed.

Hey Hey ladies! One of my fav websites for healthy recipes is Skinnytaste.com. This simple recipe is delish and a quick fix for me on busy night. I have used boneless, skinless chicken thighs and legs and both are good. I am sure you could use breast as well, although you might want to use smaller pieces to keep them from drying out.
Broiled or Grilled Pollo Sabroso
Servings: 6 • Serving Size: 1 thigh • Old Points: 4 pts • Points+: 4 pts
Calories: 154.1 • Fat: 9.5 g • Protein: 15.5 g • Carb: 0.4 g • Fiber: 0.1 g
Ingredients:
6 medium chicken thighs
1 tbsp vinegar
2 tsp soy sauce
1 packet Sazon (in Spanish aisle, I prefer Badia brand with no MSG)
Adobo (in Spanish aisle)
garlic powder
oregano
Directions:
Season chicken with vinegar and soy sauce. Add sazon, a generous amount of adobo, garlic powder, oregano and adobo and mix well. (Don't use your hands or they will turn orange) Let chicken marinate at least 20 minutes. Broil or grill on low until chicken is cooked through, careful not to burn.0 -
