Healthy Dinner Ideas

We are still stocking our refrigerator and freezer with ideas to help us get through the week sticking to a healthy lifestyle. I’m talking about dinners before lunches because when you have a healthy dinner, lunch the next day is crazy easy to prepare! Left overs! Here is how I get ready for my week. I stock up on all sorts of lean protein from the grocery store and freeze it in my freezer.
In my freezer you will find:
- Boneless, Skinless Chicken breast
- Turkey Scallopini
- Turkey Breast (bone in)
- Lean ground Turkey
- Lean ground beef
- Salmon
- Trout
- Sole
- Shrimp
- Tilapia
- Ezekiel 4:9 English Muffins or Ezekiel 4 :9 Bread
- Frozen vegetable stir fry
- Other Frozen Vegetables
And whatever else looks good at the store. I fill my freezer with these things so I am never at a loss as to what to make for dinner. I always defrost something the night before so I have to use it the next day.
You can pair lean protein with salad, quinoa, vegetables and even soups. This blog is filled with easy to do recipes. Check out the recipe section and scroll through to see if anything peeks your interest. And as I said, whatever I have for dinner I always try to make extra so I don’t have to think about lunch the next day.
In my refrigerator you will always find:
- Eggs
- Lettuce
- Tomato
- Cucumber
- Zucchini
- Sweet Potatoes
- Spaghetti Squash
- Avocado
- Home Made Salad Dressing
- Garlic
- Lemon
- Cheese (Feta, Cheddar, Parmesan)
- Asparagus/Green Beans or Broccoli
- Cooked Quinoa ( I make a batch at the beginning of the week so that I have easy access to it for meals)
- Cooked Brown Rice (Same idea as the Quinoa)
- Natural Peanut Butter
In my Cupoard I always have:
- Couple cans of Tuna or Salmon
- Uncooked Quinoa and Brown Rice
- Almond Meal
- A can of Diced or stewed tomato
- A couple cans of Marinara Sauce (if you read my post 2 days ago you know which one!)
- Barley
- Beans ( Chickpeas, Black Beans, Kidney Beans)
- Olive Oil
- Low Sodium Soy Sauce
- Turkey Burgers on Salad or on an Ezekiel English Muffin (You can serve both with cheese and Avocado!)
- Spaghetti Squash and Meat Sauce
