After breakfast and our walk we went to the grocery store to pick up some food for the week.

MEAL IDEAS FOR THE WEEK:

BBQ Pulled pork loin chops (we cooked this today in the crockpot)

Chicken Sausage & peppers with acorn squash

Turkey meat sauce over rotini pasta

Leftover Sweet Potato Shepherd’s pie

FOOD PREP:

Cut up fruit and greek yogurt with berries (already packed to go)

Cucumbers & Carrots

Sausage & Peppers

Pomegranate seeds (I am going to post about pomegranates this week)

Noodles with Olive OIl, Basil & Parmesan Cheese

I just put the acorn squash in the oven to roast with some olive oil, salt & pepper.. yum.

Now its time to make some client workouts for the week! Happy Sunday

This is a basic recipe that you can roast in the oven and decide how you want to serve it after it’s cooked. Sometimes I opt for spaghetti squash plain with some light butter or olive oil, but you can always add some parmesan cheese or serve it like pasta with sauce and meatballs! Yum.

The options are endless! What’s even better about this delicious squash it nutritional value… it has tons of vitamins and is low in calories & carbs! Check out how simple this is…

Ingredients:

1 medium Spaghetti Squash

Salt & Pepper

Directions: 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut spaghetti squash in 1/2 (long ways). Add salt & pepper. Place on a baking sheet with the cut side up and roast for 1 hour.   Take a fork and scrape the squash from the skin. It should look like spaghetti as you pull it apart! Place in a bowl and add whatever toppings you prefer!
