I might sub in a few things that I do not eat much of. But this is doable for any substitutions that you have on hand. Enjoy! ~Tiffany💗 Lunches Day 1: Taco bowl with quinoa, black beans, spinach, avocado, and ground beef Day 2: Burger salad with kale, burger patty, avocado, asparagus, cabbage, and carrots Day 3: Mediterranean bowl with quinoa, chicken, cucumber, olives, spinach, avocado, lentils, and chicken Dinners Day 1: Salmon with broccoli, sautéed spinach, and asparagus Day 2: Turmeric roasted chicken with Brussels sprouts, broccoli, and sautéed kale Day 3: Veggie and egg scramble with spinach, broccoli, and mushrooms
