Richmade Dinner: Lemon Pepper Tilapia and Baked Sweet Potato Fries with Salad

Sunday Dinner: Lemon Pepper Tilapia + Baked Sweet Potato Fries + Salad

I’ve been wanting some sweet potato fries for a while… Found a good recipe and it was simple enough for me to not burn down my kitchen! I also had a craving for salmon (I could eat salmon everyday), but since my local grocery store didn’t have a great selection, I made lemon pepper tilapia instead. I love how easy and fast this is to make. Threw in some veggies because my Momma told me to eat different colored fruits and veggies every single day! *good advice* 😀

And for dessert? Fresh watermelon! It is sitting in the fridge getting cole right now so I can enjoy some right after I publish this post! 😀

Richef’s Baked Meals

I love coming home after working out and having a clean and healthy meal to consume! Richef is a pro at baking… Last night’s postworkout meal was baked chicken wings (seasoned with herbs and stuff) with rice and green beans! Yes, it was delish!

I missed my Zumba class tonight, so I guess this meal is just considered dinner. 😀 Baked tilapia and a leafy green salad!

The meals prepped by Richef don’t always have too many ingredients, which goes to show — you don’t need so much to make something healthy and yummy!

Post Workout Meal: Salmon and Spinach Salad

Monday! I went to the gym and worked on my core and legs/glutes today. I was super hungry and Jamba Juice sounded awesome! I ordered an Aloha Pineapple for just $2.49 (sixteen size) with energy boost! When I was warming up — jump roping… And started working my abs (with weights), I started feeling a little nausea…

*Note to self — no smoothies while I’m jumping around. Maybe it’s just best for me to work out on an empty stomach… Or wait for 30 minutes or so…

My gym partner Trainer J also had an Aloha Pineapple and worked out immediately — lifting heavy weights — but he did not have the same symptoms as me. He even warned me to go easy on the bike… Smh. I need to pay attention to what he tells me.

But after workout is food time!! The best time!! Especially since Trainer J, or Richef when he is in the kitchen, cooked a perfect Salmon — seasoned with yummy spices (I do not know his secret recipes) over some baby spinach! Mmmm… High protein/no carb (just remembered I ate a piece of Richef’s garlic bread)/leafy veggie = plenty of deliciousness! I don’t know what’s for dinner tomorrow night, but I am already looking forward to it!
