Whole30 Update: Week 2 Recipes

1/17/2018

0 Comments

 
Week 2 of the Whole30 has come and gone, and that means I am more than half way done with the program! I'm seriously not counting down though because I don't think much will change after the 30 days- probably just some vodka-sodas and an indulgence at Chicago's Restaurant Week.

For last week's meals, I kept it pretty simple and the meal prep was really fast! I went with a theme of COLOR- try to get as many colors into my diet as possible. This meant trying new vegetables (i.e. small colored potatoes) and herbs (i.e. basil, thyme) to add in whenever possible. Here's what I came up with!

Week 2 meals
Sweet Potato and Chicken Sausage Hash- for breakfast or lunch 
(2 servings)
1 medium sweet potato, chopped and roasted in 425 oven for 25 minutes
1/2 white onion, chopped
Big handful of spinach
2 no-sugar added chicken sausage links (can sub ground Italian sausage, or any other meat)
Eggs over easy, fried in a touch of olive oil

While sweet potatoes are roasting, sauté onion in olive oil for 5 minutes until translucent. Add spinach and chopped chicken sausage. Cook until spinach wilts. Add sweet potatoes to pan when they are cooked through. 

Transfer a serving to a plate and top with 1-2 eggs over easy. To finish, I added some salt, pepper, red pepper flakes and 1/3 sliced avocado!
