Say BUHBYE to BORING food

I LOVE FOOD.

NOT BORING FOOD.

Chicken and rice is cool and all but it's boring as hell.

SO why just eat chicken and rice all the time???

I do believe in flexible dieting but I do believe in eating clean 90% of the time.

Use the other 10% for cheat snacks or meals.

I love making a Southwest quinoa salad or Mediterranean quinoa salad!

Start with your boring old quinoa...THEN..

Southwest:
1 red bell pepper chopped

1 green pepper chopped

1 bunch of green onion chopped

1/2 cup cilantro chopped

1 can black beans

1/2 c olive oil

Mediterranean:
1 can black olives sliced
1/2 c feta cheese

1/4 c red wine vinegar

1/4 c olive oil

1/2 large red onion chopped
1 cucumber chopped

1 large tomato chopped

YUM. 

and super easy, just don't chop off your fingertips.

Now for your protein sources, it's summer so all of ya'll should be marinating the SH*T out of your meats and grilling them. 

Just sayin'

Chicken marinades:

LEMON PEPPER:
1/2 c olive oil
1/2 c lemon juice
1 tbs pepper

1 tbs garlic

DIJON:
1/2 c dijon mustard

1/4 c olive oil
1 TBS lemon juice

1 TBS pepper

1/2 TBS garlic

1/2 TBS onion powder

BALSAMIC:
1/2 c balsamic vinegarette
1 TBS garlic

1/2 TBS pepper

EASY PEASY.
Let marinate in a giant Ziploc for 12-24 hours and BAM.

Good eats.

Happy Tuesday :)
