Taco Dinner Bowl
Easy, healthy dinners are totally up my alley.
On this past Sunday night I wanted to make an easy, yet delicious dinner, so I assembled this easy, yummy taco dinner bowl. In this taco bowl are so many yummy ingredients, that are also good for you. The broccoli is naturally detoxifying (I think we all need this on sundays!), the avocado is anti-inflammatory, the sweet potato fries have skin and collagen-healthy vitamins A and C, the turkey of course has protein (good for immune system, hair and skin cells and more). You can also dress up this dinner in any way you see fit as well!
To make this dinner, I used some pre-made ingredients- like the broccoli slaw was pre-cut and prepared by whole foods, and the sweet potato fries were pre-cut and ready to put in the oven. I love to use easy components like these, because dinner happens faster and easier.
Enjoy this delicious meal!
