Since I run, I also have some pasta I can add in to get some carbs...but not too much. All of these things are at your finger tips throughout the week so throwing together a healthy, well-rounded meal is a cinch and the salads also make nice side dishes if you actually have time to prepare a meal, just omit the protein additions (assuming your meal has protein)! Hope you all find this helpful and good luck on achieving your health and fitness goals!! Here is a pic of what I do:
That is a great idea for those who don't eat healthy because they say it takes too much time. Looks good too! You just gotta find out what works for you.

I used to cook chicken breast on sunday and heat them up during the week with a bag of steam beggies and the 90 Uncle Bens brown rice. Super easy!
