Healthy Recipe Ideas for the New Year

Thanks for sharing!

Here's to a new year of resolutions or goals! I don't usually write down personal goals, but I probably should. They are just usually a constant in my mind. I think every year, I have a goal to lose weight!

That really hasn't happened much in recent years. We do eat very healthy, but when I do eat bad like over the holidays or on vacation….I do it BIG!!! LOL!

The biggest thing that I plan to do this year is to routinely exercise. I love to walk about an hour per day and listen to audio books. It seriously motivates me to walk. I get so into the book that I'm listening to via my phone that I have to walk to continue!! Trust me…..it's great motivation. 

The one thing that I also plan to add this year is joining this little dance exercise studio out in the country like 10 minutes from me. I'm a bit nervous about the whole dance thing, but I'm assured it's for all abilities! They also do strength training classes and adding yoga in the new year. I'll have to keep you posted on that. I have had much better results of sticking with a routine when I do it in a group. Plus, it will be great to meet new people in the community!

Being an Empty Nester means getting more active and maintaining my health by staying active and making good choices. This Lemon & Herb Grilled Chicken Salad is my got-to lunch. #ad #emptynest #lunch #salad #recipe
This Lemon & Herb Grilled Chicken Salad recipe is a staple in our home. We eat it a lot in the summer as a family, but as empty nesters…..we eat this at least once per week! 

I always have greens and other veggies on had to throw a quick salad together. This salad becomes super easy when you buy already cut chicken breast strips. If you just have breasts on hand, you can easily cut them into strips.

    Question – do you marinate (or do you) the chicken? Sorry if you have already said and I just missed it.
