Today's Clean Eating Meal Plan is brought to you by:
Breakfast
Banana Peanut Butter Smoothie with Oatmeal and Maple Syrup (recipe at this link)
I like quick breakfasts. How about you?
This banana peanut butter smoothie is fast, filling and full of nutrition. The organic oats provide a healthy dose of carbs while all-natural peanut butter adds protein. Then, the real maple syrup give it a natural sweetness.
I thoroughly enjoyed this smoothie, and hope you do too.

Mid Morning Snack
Trader Joe's Dry Persimmon Slices
No additives and no preservatives, this snack pack is all-natural and full of sweetness. If you like persimmon, you'll love these.
Lunch
Curry Chicken Salad (get recipe here)
Curry induces so much flavor! It's a great way to spruce up any clean eating recipe.
When I was younger, I didn't like curry. Thought it was too spicy. But as I aged, I became accustomed to the flavors, and began to enjoy various spices.
Today's curry chicken salad is a bit different, as I added sweet grapes to the mix. I think contrasting flavors make curry even tastier.
Enjoy! And get the recipe at Clean Eating Lunch - Curry Chicken Salad.
Afternoon Snack
A healthy plate of almonds, medjool dates and banana slices.
Yum!
Dinner
Apricot Chicken Stir Fry (find recipe here)
Summer fruits are the best! And apricots are no exception.
This clean eating dinner idea incorporates the sweet aroma of apricots, which work so well in chicken stir fry. It's a lovely dish, and I highly recommend it.
