The Family Health Challenge:

Five small meals each day containing a fist-size of complex carbohydrates, a palm-size of lean protein, and a thumb-size of healthy fat. 3 liters of water. Loads of greens with at least two meals. Celery and cucumbers allowed as snacks in between. One meal off and one day off each week. 7 hours of sleep each night. Daily scripture study. Old habit gone, new habit developed. And...voila!

We are so healthy!

Chicken Linguine

Sometimes Jon and I have pleasant experiences with the food that is allowed on this diet. Here is another satisfying meal that passes through the strict boundaries!

Chicken - Throw some in the crockpot with a can of chicken broth, garlic, italian seasoning, black pepper, garlic salt, and a pinch of paprika if you likey.

Whole wheat spaghetti (I only buy from the bins at Winco...you'll save more that way)

After noodles and chicken are cooked, toss with olive oil and sprinkle some parsley on top. If you haven't used your 100 extra calories, adding a little parmesan will make all the difference. Fat-free feta is almost as tasty.

This meal is great with steamed broccoli.
