Bravo Corinne! Youve not only met but exceeded your weekly target by including lean proteins and fiber in your meals 7 times this week. Its impressive to see how youre making these healthy choices a part of your routine. Your creativity in incorporating these elements into your meals like the chickpea pasta with lean ground beef is truly inspiring. I hope you continue to enjoy these nutritious meals while also reaping the benefits of a healthier lifestyle.
