Perfect For Meal Prep

I don't know about you - but I do so much better at lunch time if I have something prepped and ready to go.  Even if I'm out and about, if I know I have a yummy lunch waiting for me at home, I can resist the urge to get fast food.  This southwest turkey burrito recipe is the perfect meal prep meal!

Feeding Yourself Well = Self Care

This year I have really tried to focus on feeding myself well at lunch time.  If I treat myself to a healthy and delicious lunch I feel much more satisfied and I never feel guilty for eating something junky.  Fast food = feeling sluggish + feeling guilty.

Lunch In Minutes

The other day I cooked up a big skillet of this southwest turkey burrito mix and I have enjoyed the heck out of it all week for lunch.  I use the La Tortilla Factory whole wheat high fiber tortillas and sprinkle a little cheese on top and this baby is golden.

Toppings FTW

Try topping with:

• A dollop of greek yogurt
• avocado
• salsa
