2 tsp Dijon Mustard
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
In a large bowl, combine the minced garlic, lemon juice, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and half of the grated cheese. Add One 9-ounce package of romaine lettuce, 4 chicken cutlets, and the rest of the cheese. Shake it and mix it!!
This recipe calls for croutons, and has a recipe for them; I am not a big crouton person (and I was also too lazy to toast the bread and this whole sha-bang for a little piece of hard bread in my salad). Instead, I took them out and added hard boiled egg whites!
I hit up Subway for lunch. It is a good deal for healthy eating when you're out, but you can make a turkey sammie at home for less money. Here is a list of items that are healthy and unhealthy at subway.
Quick On-the-Go Tip: For those of us smart phone users, I look up the restaurant I'm going to, if I'm out before I walk in. There should be an app for that - I'm going to look into it!
Week one - and done baybayyy!
For breakfast I've been eating the muffins I made in earlier posts. But I've eaten them all, so I'm going to put up some breakfast recipes tomorrow!
Gabi,
ReplyDeleteI really like the way you narrate the entire Healthy Life Project and I am really learning the ways to cut down fat from my diet. Although I have not stared working out but I will start that also because your blogs are a true inspiration for me!!
Oh thanks Tas! You're so sweet! I have a workout page that I'm building, and will link it to this page!
ReplyDeletethis recipe sounds wonderful! I think low far may is just as good as regular. I am not a crouton fan either, Gabi
