You ve heard of the clich Health is wealth. So go ahead and add fitness to your monthly budget. Spend some money on your diet and well-being. To achieve your fitness goals, you ll need both time and money and you won t regret doing it ever.
Morning If you are bored of eating the regular nuts and dry fruits, try munching on macadamia nuts in the morning. They are slightly expensive as compared to regular nuts but are worth the money spent. Here are 7 reasons why you must include macadamia nuts in your diet.
Breakfast An interesting egg and beetroot salad will break the boredom associated with regular breakfast. It s wholesome and if you want, you can accompany it with a multigrain toast or add chunks of it in the salad. You can even spread the salad on toast and enjoy it.
Lunch Being on a healthy diet doesn t mean you have to stick to basic foods. All international and local cuisines can be easily prepared in a healthy way. For instance, this spring pea pasta with ricotta and herbs makes a scrumptious meal. Though ricotta is a form of cheese, it s low in calories and fat and can be included in few recipes or salads.
Snacks Another delectable and a fancy recipe for snack time is the lemon-dill chicken and egg salad. It s tangy and easy to prepare. Perfect for an evening snack and to keep you full so that you don t crave heavy or unhealthy food at dinner time.
Dinner Skip carbohydrates for dinner and enjoy a protein rich recipe like this lemon oregano chicken. Another international dish that will make you forget that you are actually following a healthy diet. If you are a vegetarian, you can replace chicken with paneer or tofu and add some veggies on the sides.
