Lucy's perfect Nutrition Day

Lucy was our winner of designing a perfect common sense nutrition day and here it is!

Breakfast:
Poached Egg on (2) slices of toasted Ezekial break with 1TBL Hummus sliced tomato & sprouts with glass of Orange Juice

AM Snack:
Banana

Lunch:
Homemade Chicken Bowl with sprouted brown rice, grilled chicken breast (seasoned with lime juice, garlic & pepper) green peppers, red peppers, onions, mushrooms, water chestnuts, broccoli & baby carrots steamed with water & lime juice – then a use less than a teaspoon of low sodium soy sauce on top & some toasted seaweed crumbled on top 

I cook up some rice on Sundays to have on hand for lunches (since I love brown rice but have switched it from a dinner item to a lunch item) & the chicken/veggies are leftovers from a previous dinner so this lunch is a quick one to put together and microwave at work.

PM Snack:
Celery stalks with a 1TBL peanut butter (no sugar) – just enough to lightly spread and get the taste of the peanut butter

Dinner:
Grilled Salmon with lemon (or lime) juice, dill, pepper with steamed asparagus and large green salad – mixed greens, cucumber, tomato, broccoli slaw, red cabbage, shredded carrots, sprouts & microgreens with just a sprinkle of freshly grated asiago cheese and fresh squeezed lemon juice.

Evening Snack:
½ cup warmed applesauce (no sugar) sprinkled with a little cinnamon
1 cup herbal tea (no sugar)

With lots of water throughout the day and to make sure I don’t get too busy and forget to drink my water I put myself on a schedule to drink 20oz (I have a 20oz bottle) by certain times throughout the day.
