I don’t even know if trainwreck-proof is even a real word, but for the sake of this blog possibly saving your butt some unwanted fat, it will serve as a word in this blog.

Many people blow their diet’s right off the bat by not planning ahead and then living an extremely hectic lifestyle that doesn’t allow them time to cook real, nutritious meals. What can you do?

Make faster meals!

Here are a few healthy meals that not only taste great, but also are quick and easy. They may sound gross, but just give them a chance. You will love me in May when bathing suit season swings around.

Breakfast:
Cook oatmeal (instant-not the brownsugar and spiced apple kind that tastes like a candy bar) in the micro. 90 seconds should do the job. Next, toss in a scoop of natural peanut butter and stir. Then choose a banana or a handful of berries to stir in as well. Yum! in less than 5 minutes.

Snack:
String cheese.

Yes, that’s it. String-fricken cheese. Unwrap it, peel it like you are 12 again or just eat it.

Lunch:
Salad topped with chicken. Make an entire large bowl on Sunday or when you get time. It will last at least 3-4 days. Get bag of romaine and wash. Toss in tupperware. Sprinkle some (key word is some, not the whole bag) cheese of your liking on top. Toss in some diced tomatoes and other vegetables (broccoli,celery, etc) if you have time. Top with bag of pre-cut chicken or steak. Divide portions as needed in other tupperware and top with vinegar and olive oil when you are ready to eat. This takes about 8 minutes tops for up to 4-5 lunches.

Yes, it may be in higher in sodium than fresh, but it would be better than starving yourself and then eating an entire rotisserie chicken and family of Krispie Kremes when you get home.

More to come….
