Get Healthy

• grilled chicken breasts for meals such as BBQ chicken sandwiches or low-fat chicken Caesar salads
• grilled or roasted vegetables such as zucchini, bell peppers, carrots, onions and asparagus which easily can be tossed into pasta or chopped with vinaigrette as a side salad
• hard-boiled eggs to make a quick morning sandwich on a whole grain english muffin or sliced into a garden salad
• cooked whole grain pasta so you can quickly warm small portions in the microwave or skillet instead of waiting for a pot of water to boil

Eat This

Nutritional Yeast.
Nutritional yeast is considered the vegan version of parmesan cheese. It is a salty, nutty and cheesy condiment you can sprinkle on popcorn, garlic bread and make delicious cheesy sauces. Nutritional yeast has more protein than traditional parmesan cheese and is rich in fiber and B vitamins ... some brands are even fortified with vitamin B12 which is perfect for vegetarians who sometimes struggle to get enough B12 in their diets.

Buy nutritional yeast (not baker's yeast or brewer's yeast) in the bulk section of a healthfood store or on amazon.com. Keep nutritional yeast in a parmesan cheese shaker in your fridge so you can grab and sprinkle anytime.
