Since beginning my Fat Loss Foodies Cooking School journey back in October, one of the biggest lessons I learned was letting go of food guilt and the fear eating out. Fat Loss Foodies taught me how to navigate through restaurant menus and build a meal that fueled my body properly. As long as I could find some protein, some good carbs, good fats and a whole ton of fibrous, water-filled greens on a given menu, I could manage dining out and feel satisfied.
Of course, filling my plate with lots of healthy greens comes easy when dining at Sweet Tomatoes, one of my family’s favorite restaurants.
Since many of you may have made a resolution to eat more healthy this year, Sweet Tomatoes wants to help you reach your “Happy New You” goals by offering more protein-packed and superfoods options in addition to their usual assortment of greens and made from scratch soups.
For the month of January, Sweet Tomatoes offer menu items centered around functional foods that provide health benefits beyond basic nutrition. With new tossed and prepared salads such as the Power Fit Chicken Salad, Fat Loss Foodies fans like me can enjoy protein-and vegetable-packed dishes.
In fact, Sweet Tomatoes’ Power Fit Chicken fits my Fat Loss Foodies meal template perfectly by offering the right combination of protein, fibrous greens, non-starchy watery veggies, healthy fats (sunflower seeds and avocado oil) and low starch carbs (carrots and edamame)
