I work full time…So not only do I try and make sure that my kiddos have healthy lunches, it’s important that I’m fueling up with nutritious weight loss recipes so I can get through the work day, as well! On most days I work during my lunch, so I’m always looking for easy meals to take with me to have on hand. I’m also lucky that I live close to the office where I work, and that I can run home and grab something, too. Yesterday, I literally had 15 minutes to grab something before rushing back to work. BUT…You’d never know that the AMAZING dish I created, took less than those 15 minutes! I had the following items in my fridge:
-Left over turkey
-One yellow squash
-A handful of red grapes
-A few chopped almonds
Introduce: “Noon Time Rush”
-Take the yellow squash and slice it up. Saute with olive oil, a small tab of butter, or with cooking spray. Salt and Pepper. Cook until lightly golden on the edges
-Chop up the turkey into bit-sized cubes.
Put the squash, turkey and grapes into a large dish. Mix together. Top with chopped almonds. Sprinkle with sea salt. DEVOUR at your desk!!
This would also be a great, QUICK dinner entree to have with a side salad, or sliced fruit.
What is a quick, healthy recipe you make when you need something on the spot, that’s in YOUR fridge?!


This looks absolutely fantastic Laura! You better watch it or I’m going to start showing up at your house around meal time
