The 1,500 Calorie-A-Day Menu Cookbook

Fast & Fresh 30 minute everyday meals for healthy people on the go! Choose 350 calorie meals, two 150 calorie snacks and delicious dessert for only 150 calories.

Our schedules are so crazy, and eating healthy is not always at the top of the priority list. We tend to let the healthy aspect slide a little, along with our health. It can get away from us one bite at a time. By the same token, we can improve our quality of health one bite at a time!

With this book, it’s actually enjoyable to stick to a healthy, low-calorie meal plan. Just because you’re trying to lose weight or watch your calorie intake, doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice flavor, taste, variety, or the simple pleasures food can bring. Remember “snack time” growing up? It not only helped refuel us between meals, it was fun! But what we didn’t realize was that it was also portion controlled – a couple of graham crackers and milk, and apple, or a handful of nuts, for example. And so it is with this book: grab a fast-fix snack in the middle of the morning and then again in the afternoon, just like you used to do. It’s a fun and easy way to stay on track, as is the entire book.
