Hearty Turkey Sloppy Joe’s

About two weeks ago, I posted a little video on Instagram of lunch being made. I fixed a Turkey Sloppy Joe that day. It’s such a great midday meal! I found this healthy and hearty Sloppy Joe recipe on the Weight Watchers site. It makes a lot, so I know I have many servings ready! This is great for fixing for a group, or just your family’s weekly lunchtime. Don’t let “Weight Watchers” make you leery! This is simply lower in calories because it’s made with ground turkey. The flavors are incredible!

Three-Ingredient Pancakes

My breakfast routine for about five days of the week is Greek yogurt, fruit and granola. l eat the Oikos yogurt because it has 15 grams of protein and keeps my sugar from dropping. I eat this menu because it’s delicious, and also healthy.

But there are days when I would love to enjoy a pancake, but cringe at starting the day with lots of calories. Then I tried a three-ingredient pancake recipe that was absolutely delicious, and my breakfast menu now has a whole new entry!

But I’m happy to say that there are little treats that are delicious and don’t have to kill the hope of eating better!

Lunch – Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

It’s so easy to get into a rut at lunchtime! The choices get old – a sandwich, a cup of soup. or a hot dog. One day when I was searching for lunch ideas, I found this recipe for Asian Chicken Wraps on the Weight Watchers site and I realized that I pretty much always have these ingredients on hand. I buy a rotisserie chicken from Sam’s Club every couple of weeks and cut the meat off the bones and freeze it. Then when I want to make anything with chicken breasts or thighs, it’s so convenient.

The ingredients for these wraps are few – thigh meat chicken, celery, carrots and Hoisin sauce. Eating them on lettuce makes them lighter, and the crunchy lettuce is perfect! Talk about a quick, healthy lunch menu!
