HEALTHY 3 COURSE MEAL RECIPES

Valentine’s day is quickly approaching once again! Have you already prepared dinner ideas for your upcoming date nights? If not, let me introduce you to my three-course date night meal. My love for challenges in the kitchen has taught me that with a few adjustments, we can fit a full-course meal into our diets and goals — without compromising on flavor and satisfaction. Refreshing Watermelon, Arugula, and Feta Salad with Homemade Citrus Vinaigrette To start your date night off right, here’s a simple salad recipe for you! This gives you a refreshing summery taste of crisp watermelon-arugula salad with a homemade citrus vinaigrette that is both delicious and nutritious. This salad contains a decent amount of Vitamins C, E, and Manganese that reduces cell damage and inflammation — making it not only great for date night meals but perfect for weeknights and casual dinners too! Healthier Version of Chicken Piccata This is one of my absolute favorite Italian savory meals! Instead of using pork chops or other pork cuts, I prefer using chicken breast. Specifically, chicken breast that has been coated, sautéed and smothered in a lemon and white wine sauce. To make this dish heartier, I use coconut oil and almond flour. I also include white wine — an optional item — to add to the flavor while staying as close as possible to the original recipe. Further, if you prefer beef, you can also use flank steak or beef tenderloin as a substitute. Even pork chop will do the trick for this tasty recipe. You can also pair this with pasta. Check out my shirataki noodle stir-fry recipe for your date night dinner plan if you want to take things to the next level. Lastly, feel free to include seared scallops, shrimps, or any other seafood/veggies of your choice. Banana Raspberry Dark Chocolate Brownies Last but not the least, dessert! Who doesn’t want some indulgent dessert after hearty meals, right? Don’t worry, I won’t keep you waiting, here’s my recipe for healthy brownies! For me, brownies are a great option when it comes to dessert. You can use a lot of combinations and even add your own twist or style to it. Still, you should be careful when tweaking because you’ll end up changing the macronutrient content of the dish. I prefer using dark chocolate in this recipe for its health benefits. It’s rich in fiber, magnesium, potassium, and antioxidants. Have other meal ideas? Feel free to share your ideas by sending me an email or commenting below! Let’s all enjoy our dinner dates while still achieving our weight loss and fitness goals together! Stay healthy always fit foodies!
