New Recipes

I usually go and research my lean and green meals and find recipes to compile not only to have while I am on Medifast but after I transition off. I knew that I could not make it if I just had my 3 servings of green and one of lean each day. I would go crazy, I knew I had to find different recipes to keep things exciting. Each week I make out a menu and then put all the items I need for that week in a shopping list on my phone. I only go to the grocery store that one time. It has taken off a lot of stress. Everything is done and I have a dry erase board on my fridge that actually has all the days and the recipe for that day. When my husband wakes up in the morning he looks and sees what kinda meat we are having that day and sets it out to defrost. This has simplified my life so much because it ensures that I have everything I need and I can make sure that I do not have say chicken or broccoli 3 or 4 times a week. LOL

Both of these recipes were so wonderful I knew I had to share them with you.  Sooo...Monday's dinner was Bruschetta Topped Roasted Chicken w/Garlic Green Beans from the Time Savor Gourmet website.
