5 Family Dinners in 10 mins or less that also rank as Healthy :)
No explanations. I'm gonna just give it to you.
Each meal has:
Excellent FIBER
Protein
low cal (cuz its dinner time> save the cals for breakfast)
low bad fats
fresh fruit
fresh veggie
BUT FIRST------- let's just be REAL:

And so---- I embark to share the 5 easiest dinners that my family will eat that are healthy and fast.
Dinner 1) Black bean and cheese burritos with watermelon and cucumber slices
Fiber: black beans and fruits and veggies
Protein: tortillas, beans, and cheese
Low cal: approx 300 per burrito, and fruit and cucumbers are seriously LOW cal- approx 30 in 1/2 cup of each!
Bad fats: maybe in your tortillas, but otherwise, you're good
Fresh fruit and veggie CHECK!

Dinner 2) Skillet Salmon with wild rice, cherries and chopped salad
Fiber: wild rice and chopped salad and cherries
Protein: Salmon and wild rice
Low cal: approx 4-500 calories per serving of salmon with 1/2 c rice and the chopped salad with dressing
Bad fats: None
Fresh fruit and veggie CHECK!

Dinner 3) Baked Nachos with strawberries and Carrot sticks
Fiber: black beans in the nachos and some from the corn multigrain chips
Protein: chicken and black beans and cheese
Low Cal: approx 400 cals per 2 cups of the nachos
Bad fats: if you over do it on the cheese you might go into the red there- but if you go modest you'll be alright
Fresh fruit and veggie CHECK!

Dinner 4) Breakfast Buffet! Whole Grain KODIAK Protein Waffles, Turkey Sausage, Eggs, Spinach/Berry Smoothies
Fiber: Waffles and berry smoothie
Protein: waffles, eggs, and sausage
Low Cal: about 4-600 calories depending on serving size and how many eggs you eat
Bad fats: the sausage and eggs could be culprits if you eat more than 2 of each
Fresh fruit and veggie? CHECK!

Dinner 5) Pita Pizzas! With Apple Sundaes and Carrot sticks with Ranch dressing
Fiber: Pitas and apples and carrots
Protein: Pitas, cheese, and possible meat toppings
Low Cal: 4-500 cals per person depending on toppings for the pizza and sundaes
Bad fats: if you choose to have chocolate on your apple sundae or a LOT of processed meats on your pizza you could get into this, but its minimal
Fresh fruit and veggie? CHECK!
RECIPE for Pita Pizzas and Apple Sundaes is simply an apple chopped up with an tsp each of melted peanut butter and dark chocolate chips on top :)
There you have it! Each of these dinners takes less than 10 minutes and your family will gobble them up and you can rest easy about the nutrition part.
YESSSSS.
