Clean Eating Pan Seared Tilapia with Avocado Citrus Salsa

So, if you haven’t picked up on this one already, I am a bit of a planner. And if I am going to eat right, I need to plan to eat right. This means I need to write out every dang meal, collect every dang ingredient, for the whole dang week – or I’m dang screwed. But my Type A organization works here – it really does! Taking the guess-work out of “What’s for Dinner” really forces you to be regimented… and that’s the whole point!

This recipe surfaced when I created a meal plan for the week with basically chicken and veggies. I mean don’t get me wrong, I love chicken, and I love vegetables, but variety is the spice of life people!

Enter Pan Seared Tilapia with Avocado Citrus Salsa… admittedly this is a weird recipe. At first I was a little hesitant to combine all these ingredients, but I thought Steve would love it (he’s far more adventurous than I am) so I gave it a whirl. What a GREAT risk! It was absolutely divine! You HAVE to try this!! Its quick, delicious and light! The perfect summer meal

Clean Eating Enchiladas (one of a billion backlog posts!)

Although it has been a few days (11 days to be exact) since I have posted a new recipe… I have been a cooking mad man! Steve helped too! We’ve been on the up and up with eating better for about two whole weeks now – and I think it shows!

Now negligently, I have not recorded said delicious recipes since – well we have a dang wedding to finish up planning and constructing! And it’s been very busy in our miniature household!

So, I know I’ve made this delicious recipe, twice now, and haven’t posted it… So it’s about time this amazing dish got the credit (and historical privilege) on this blog! My favorite Clean Eating Blog, the Gracious Pantry, crafted this one up and it is just decadent, but not in a heavy-oh-my-god-what-did-i-just-do way…  It hits just the right balance of filling, satisfying and good for you! What else can you ask for… now, ladies and germs, Clean Eating Enchiladas!

Steve made this the most recent time and did an AMAZING job. This is delicious for days , or if you want to freeze a few for a rainy day – there is literally nothing I would add or subtract to this… its honestly delicious! 

Operation White Dress: Lemon Walnut Chicken

I stepped on a scale Friday...Hell of a day to step on a scale I know. And to boot, it was horrible. Who ever said numbers can't be mean -- well, quite frankly, I believe some lying skinny bitch probably said that while she downed her last of many martinis. All the weight I had lost from eating clean and running every day has come back… Yo-yoing so 1994… But in four short weeks I have undone everything I worked so hard and passionately for. Traveling is amazing but UGH it certainly takes a toll on your numbers... I don't even want to know my butt measurement right now - I would make Beyonce jealous for sure. 

So today, we started Operation White Dress. I bought a workout DVD incase its too hot out to run (a common excuse in our household), and my yoga mat is back in full operation. I even bought myself a new sports bra to inspire me to wear workout clothes – and the rule is if you want to wear the clothes, you have to do the work.

There will be no cheating.

There will be no processed crap entering this house.

There will be no excuses.

However!

There will be planning.

There will be cooking.

There will be sweat.

There will be pride and confidence in this house again! (insert Braveheart howl here)
