Out & A-Sprout

It's difficult keeping up with healthy eating and exercising habits when you have a job. No doubt. When you're in the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it is natural to think something along the lines of:

"I'll stop somewhere to eat on my way, I don't have time to make something at home."

And more often than not, where you end up stopping for food is going to be fast (the whole point of why you didn't make something at home). So guess what that gives us? Food that is fast = FAST FOOD (uh oh!).

Trust me, I am completely guilty of caving in to the convenience of fast food in the past (I mean c'mon,  there has to be a Taco Bell or McDonald's at every corner in this modern-day world--of course it's hard to resist this!).

But here comes the good news..I have become pretty good at making express meals that seriously take no longer than 5 minutes (and that probably includes the time of taking out and putting back all of the ingredients in the fridge/pantry). Five minutes is probably the equivalent of the time you'd spend sitting in the drive-thru waiting to get your grub, but with making quick meals at home you automatically eliminate the potential risk of long lines that you'd find at the drive-thru (and of course that one person in the car in front of you who is throwing a fit about having tomatoes on her Nacho Bell-Grande when she SPECIFICALLY asked for no tomatoes!...You'd think it was the end of the world from these customers' reactions, right?).

Anywho, here is a healthy and incredibly quick lunch that I made yesterday before zooming off to work!

Ingredients:
-2 slices Ezekiel bread
-Sliced Turkey Breast
-Alfalfa Sprouts
-Avacado
-1 slice Mozzarella Cheese

Just place all of this on the bread and you've got yourself a pretty darn good sammich! 

Enjoy!
