My Healthy and Clean Fat Tuesday

I LOVE southern styled food.. Especially anything with spice… I would have liked to have a jumbo bowl of gumbo, jambalaya, or étouffée…BUT I’m on the road to clean eating.. So I made a chicken and shrimp rice fake jambalaya and it will be in my meal prep rotation regularly! without tomato…

Here’s the recipe:

Ingredients:
1/2 lb of raw shrimp (deveined and peeled)
4 oz boneless/skinless chicken breast (diced)
1/2 medium white onion, diced
1 medium green bell pepper, diced
1 celery rib
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cup of instant brown rice (uncooked)
1/2 cup of chicken broth (made mine from scratch to ensure it was clean)
Sea salt and black pepper to taste
Olive oil cooking spray

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. In a large bowl, mix all ingredients together (not cooking spray)
3. Prepare 2 foil pouches.. Spray each piece of foil with spray and divide mixture evenly among both pieces of foil and seal.
4. Place pouches on a baking tray and cook for 25 minutes (or until fully cooked).
5. Open pouches carefully and enjoy 🙂

Eating Right…On The Go….

SO..I didn’t meal plan any food for the day…and I had to rush to the doctor after work for a physical…I needed food AND QUICK!

So I stopped at TGIFridays and tried out their new light cal dish…Sizzlin’ Chicken and Spinach..and YUMMM! It was great..miso glazed chicken over a bed of veggies (spinach, carrots, squash, zucchini) and I added a side of broccoli. In total, it comes to 400 calories :)….HOWEVER the sodium seemed high..and upon research there are 2080 mg of Sodium….so while this was tasty…idk that I’d order it again. Maybe try the glaze on the side? 🙂
