4 Ingredients or Less

4 Ingredients or Less

Sometimes I just want something that will hold me but I don't have the time to prepare a time consuming meal. Enter the idea of "Four Ingredients or Less." Why? Because sometimes less is more right? The point is - what you put into your body matters, and simple ingredients can be more beneficial than a whole lot of ingredients. Adding pumpkin seeds (not pictured in photo, because I had already taken a bite before I thought to add pumpkin seeds) gives you a healthy dose of Omega 3 fats, zinc to support your immune system and magnesium to promote heart health.

So I threw together a nice lettuce wedge salad before I ran out the door to pick my kids up from school.
