Clean Eating Weight Loss Meal Plan 101

Breakfast

Strawberry Goat Cheese Sandwich

A high-carb and high-protein combo is a great way to start the day--and this strawberry goat cheese sandwich is just that. It's filling; it's nutritious; and it's delicious.

Find recipe at Healthy Breakfast Idea.

Mid Morning Snack

Avocado with Balsamic Vinegar and Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Drizzle organic balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil on avocado halves, and use a spoon to scoop each bite. It's a quick, simple and yummy snack.

Lunch

Tuna Parm and Tomato Melt (from this recipe)

Lunch time is a time for you to recharge--and lunch recipes should be quick and nutritious. This tuna, parm and tomato melt is a great idea because it has sufficient protein, fats, carbs and vegetables. Plus, it's warm and filling, and tastes awesome.

Find recipe at Clean Eating Lunch. It's super easy, so why not give it a try.

Afternoon Snack

Walnut-Stuffed Medjool Dates

Nuts are forces of nature and king of healthy snacks--and walnuts are certainly among them. According to mercola.com, walnuts have cancer-fighting properties, heart-healthy omega-3, brain-improving vitamins and folate, and a rare type of antioxidant called polyphenol antioxidants that prevent inflammation, a leading cause for cancer development. Walnuts also improve male reproductive health, metabolic parameters in people with type 2 diabetes, and overall weight control.

For natural snacks, dates are also desirable, because of their abundance in "calcium, amino acids, sulphur, iron, potassium, phosphorous, manganese, copper, and magnesium."

Together, walnuts and dates make quite a wholesome combo--and that's why I recommend this delicious clean eating snack of toasted walnuts stuffed in sweet medjool dates.

Dinner

Greek Salad

When it comes to salads, a colorful and supple plate of Greek salad makes one of the best choice. Its veggies are crunchy and the dressing is flavorful. You can add meat for extra protein if you want to, but the Greek yogurt dressing offers plenty of protein already.

Not sure about you, but I prefer eating light at night, and therefore recommend this easy and tasty Greek salad.
