A HUGE misconception about the clean eating diet is that clean eating meals, or weight loss foods in general, require fancy, exotic ingredients and complicated steps to make.

In reality, a clean eating diet is simple: use as little processed ingredients as possible, and make quick and easy meals. For these reasons, clean eating has gained much popularity in the last few years. Its simple, tasty and creates a healthy lifestyle. Whats not to like?

Clean eating diet can also help you lose weight, because eliminating processed ingredients eliminates refined sugar, hydrogenated oil and all the harsh artificial ingredients that induce weight gain. By simplifying your meals, you reduce unnecessary calories--and most of them develop into fat.


Todays healthy lunch and clean eating recipe reflects just the simplicity that defines clean eating.

With only five ingredients, this juicy, delicious and completely clean sandwich was a pleasure to both make and eat.

Plus, it took less than five minutes to make. We all like that, dont we?

Healthy Lunch Recipe: Avocado Tomato Open Face Sandwich

Ingredients:
- 1 piece of whole wheat bread, slightly toasted
- 1/2 avocado, peeled, de-cored and sliced
- 2 slices of tomato
- 1 slice of all-natural swiss cheese
- 2-3 leaves of basil, broken
- 1 tea spoon of extra virgin olive oil and 1 tea spoon of organic balsamic vinegar (optional)

Directions:
1. Slice toast in halve, and lay each piece on a plate.
2. Stack swiss cheese, avocado slices and tomato on top. 
3. Splash basil leaves. Then drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar, if you choose to use them.

Thats all. Now enjoy each bite.

Thanks again for coming by Clean Eating Weight Loss Meal Plan!

I hope you enjoy todays Healthy Lunch Recipe.

(I think you would if youre an avocado-lover.)

I also hope to see you next time!

Breakfast

Egg and Feta Wrap

Want a lighter cheese? Try feta. Made with sheeps or goats milk, feta is gentler on the digestive system and has sufficient vitamins and minerals. It is, however, high in saturated fat and calories, and therefore better consumed earlier in the day.

Due to fetas sodium content, it pairs well with eggs because it adds a slightly salty flavor. In todays feta and egg wrap, I used organic whole wheat tortilla to add more nutritional value. The result was a tasty yet wholesome breakfast.

Mid Morning Snack

Grapes and Walnuts with Honey Drizzles

Crunchy, juicy and sweet, this simple snack is satisfying and clean.

Lunch

Pear Champagne Salad (recipe here)

Fruits and veggies are go-tos for any clean eating recipe. Todays Pear Champagne Salad consisted of sweet pear, supple veggies and an assortment of other flavorful ingredients. The salad had a delicious combination of both flavor and texture. Most importantly, it made a healthy lunch.

Afternoon Snack

Cherry Banana Peanut Butter Smoothie

Smooth, creamy all-natural peanut butter blended with supple banana and sweet cherries, this clean eating snack/dessert couldnt be tastier. 

If you like refreshing smoothies with a healthy twist, youll love this cherry banana peanut butter mix. Find recipe at Clean Eating Snack Idea.

Dinner

Sicilian Spinach Salad (by Lemon Tree Dwelling)

With over 5000 re-pins on Pinterest--and going--this Mediterranean salad gained popularity with its savory flavor and healthy content. Combining spinach, goat cheese, sun-dried tomatoes and pine nuts, the salad is already a clean eating dream. Then, it was drizzled in freshly-made Balsamic Vinaigrette...my mouth waters just thinking of it.
