This Super Easy And Delicious Salad Is Good For You!

Wow, do I feel like I could eat a bit lighter after the summer! All those juicy BBQ meals with extra sauce and heavy desserts… And with the holidays coming up, I should definitely watch what I eat for the next couple of weeks, at least. But I don’t want to go on a diet, and I don’t want to start eating “health food”. You know, the stuff that’s supposed to be good for you but doesn’t really taste like it, haha!

I’m just kidding. I know that healthy food is a great thing and that there are actually plenty of dishes that are considered lean and healthy – yet, they taste amazing. What I decided to do to get things started is have more salads. Not the heavy, mayo type of salads but something that’s fresh and tasty.

For example this taco salad from Making Memories With Your Kids. Lovely, fresh iceberg lettuce and tomatoes, great protein from the meat and the beans, and plenty of amazing flavor from the seasonings. I could eat this every day of the week – and maybe I will!

Meet The Most Versatile Chili Recipe You’ll Ever Make

I like to plan ahead when it comes to meal planning. One of my favorite ways to do that is to make a big batch of a recipe and freeze it for later. The great thing about doing this is that I have recipes stocked in the fridge for any busy day that I can quickly heat up for my family. The downside, of course, is that the same meal can get old if we’ve had several busy nights in a row.

This chili recipe is PERFECT for preventing leftover burnout. On day 1, have the chili straight from the bowl. On day two, add some lettuce, tomatoes, olives, and other favorite toppings to make taco salad. One day 3, use the same ingredients but build nachos as your meal. So versatile, all using similar ingredients, but in different proportions.

Quick Tip – To store, spoon 3 cups into a gallon size freezer bag and place flat in the freezer. Once frozen, you can turn the bag upright to take up less space.
