Healthy Lady Week!!
My girl Chelsea and I were talking at the pool today about how we both had weeks where we just didn’t take care of our bodies, and we just needed to make some changes. She is a dietician, and I’m, well, you know me. I know what to do to take care of myself. I just let stress get the best of me, and made poor choices. It’s really nice when you have friends that are professionals that work long hours, take care of other people, and know what it’s like to not put yourself first sometimes. We are all human! All it takes is some moral support and an effort to regroup. That’s what meal prep Sundays for Healthy Lady week are for! We both went to the store, gathered up our healthy food, and met outside at our apartment complex’s grill!
I’ve never had bison, but I read that it’s leaner than regular beef so I was really excited to try it! I put Caribbean Jerk seasoning on the shrimp, and seasoned salt on the cod and chicken.
The grills at our complex are so nice!! I can’t believe this is the first time we’ve used them! I have to admit, I am not a grill master. I’m actually not bad at meat, but as you’ll see, I’m not great at veggies. I will take all of the tips I can get at grilling veggies, so please leave a comment if you have some for me!!
I saved the bison and seafood for last because they don’t need as much time.
I can’t complain about our view from the grill, or the proximity of the grill to my unit!
Here is the finished product! As you can see, the broccolini and some of the other veggies got a bit torched. I definitely think I am going to make foil pouches next time. Not only will some of them cook faster, but they won’t burn and will cook more thoroughly. Everything else turned out awesome!! The bison was really good! I cooked the shrimp perfectly :-)
Some of the other healthy things I got for the week that are in my fridge are:
Last but not least, dinner for the night:
Thanks so much for stopping by for my Healthy Lady Week meal prep post! Again, leave me any grilling tips you have, and have a great week!
Happy Trails,
