If there is one thing in life I know to be true, it is that I love food. Especially when I can eat food that is good for me and not feel guilty about it! There is nothing better than feeling like you are cheating on a meal when you are not!
The best thing that I have found with the 21 Day Fix, is that I do NOT starve myself-ever! Sometimes, I have to force myself to eat all of my containers for the day. So yesterday I was craving mexican food unreal. I could probably eat my weight in chips and salsa! So I walked to the freezer and pulled out a flank steak, whipped up a marinade and let it sit all day long.
After about 6-7 hours, I cut up my veggies and sautéed them while I put the steak on the grill.
After the steak and veggies were finished, I sliced the steak and loaded a whole wheat tortilla up with 1 red of steak, 1 green of veggies and 1/2 blue of cheese. This meal was really easy, clean up was a breeze and best of all, it was amazing to eat! And, I didn't have to feel guilty about eating all the chips and salsa afterwards!
