My balanced lunch today was a greek yogurt parfait with wheat berries, blackberries and a drizzle of agave with leftover red cabbage, carrot and cilantro slaw.
Here is the breakdown:
Protein: Greek yogurt
Vegetable: red cabbage, carrots, cilantro
Carbohydrate: wheat berries and blackberries
Fat: olive oil in the slaw, 2% Greek yogurt
This meal does contain your one starchy carb option per day. If you don’t want to use your starchy carb option here, omit the wheat berries.
