I have to admit, this was the first time I have attempted making any kind of breaded chicken. I typically don't eat much in the way of flour or breadcrumbs, but when I came across this recipe using a small amount of coconut flour, and coconut flakes, I figured I'd give it a try, and I am so glad I did. This recipe was really pretty easy, and still very healthy, and the mango salad on the side was the perfect tropical touch to go with the coconut chicken.

Sometimes you just want dessert, but not one that will mess with your fitness goals. I was craving a rich, filling chocolate dessert and set out to create one that wouldn't wreck my beach body goals, and set out to create just that. This protein pudding is almost mousse-like after blending, and is the perfect base for some fresh berries, toasted coconut, or cacao nibs. At only 195 calories, 14 grams of protein, and 7 grams of fiber (pre-toppings), this dessert will hit the spot without the sugar crash. I blended the chia pudding in order to make the texture more mousse-like, but your could skip this step if you like.

Weeknight dinners should be easy. No one wants to spend hours in the kitchen after a long day. But just because dinner is easy, doesn't mean that it can't be delicious and healthy and pretty to look at too. This dinner checks all of those boxes. It is easy, delicious, and just over 300 calories.
