I am having one of my really great friends over for dinner tonight and decided to make her a wonderful dish with mixed vegetables and pesto chicken.
I had made this dish for a client recently, and it was such a hit!
I couldn’t wait to make it again.
This dish includes the following ingredients:
Raw kale (hiding underneath the yumminess!)
Asparagus
Baby bok choy
Broccolini
Carrots
Avocado
Grapes
Chicken
Pesto
Having friends over for dinner and decided to make them a beautiful chuck roast with plenty of vegetables!
This plate offers a beautiful and nutritious roasted plate of foods densely rich in nutrition, loaded with essential vitamins and minerals, lean protein, healthy fat, and fiber.
All of the colors are beautifully put together, if I don’t say so myself??
Presented on the plate are:
Grass-fed Roast
Roasted root vegetables (organic carrots, onions, and baby potatoes)
Roasted red onion, shallots, and garlic
Roasted asparagus
Roasted Brussels sprouts
An avocado rose (my first one!!)
This meal is paired perfectly. Creating a well-balanced plate is important to make sure you are getting all of the essential nutrients your body needs to sustain healthy living. This plate has lean protein, vegetables (fiber!), and healthy fats. I always teach my clients to make more than half of their plate vegetables. Pairing meals this way allows you to feel fuller for a longer amount of time by increasing satiety, keeps the digestive system and gut healthy, keeps your metabolism going, feeds your muscles to keep them strong and in fat-burning mode, and stabilizes your blood sugar. The more stable your blood sugar, the less sugar cravings, crashes, and inflammation you will experience.
