What to Order This Week: Starbucks

Looking for something fresh, light and flavorful that you can grab on-the-go? Well, the Starbucks' new Summer Lunch items are just that. Beginning April 30, this new selection of salad bowls and deli sandwiches will be the perfect quick lunch options. Oh, and did I mention each of the Bowls have less than 450 calories a piece?! (Score!) Now you'll have no excuse to order that high-fat Frapp. (Well, you know, unless you had a really bad day...)

Here's the scrumptious salad bowl line-up:

Chicken and Greens Caesar Salad Bowl: A familiar favorite, Caesar salad, is made over with a healthful twist of fresh kale and the addition of roasted tomatoes, all topped with grilled chicken. (With dressing: 340 calories, 25g fat, 19g protein)Zesty Chicken and Black Bean Salad Bowl: A blend of grilled chicken, black beans, roasted corn, jicama, tomatoes, feta, spring greens and protein-rich quinoa is topped with a mild chile vinaigrette. (With dressing: 360 calories, 15g fat, 19g protein)Hearty Veggie and Brown Rice Salad Bowl: Roasted butternut squash and beets are tossed with sliced kale and red cabbage, steamed broccoli florets, garden peas and all topped with a lemony tahini dressing. (With dressing: 430 calories, 22g fat, 10g protein)

And if you need something to wash it all down with, you may want to try one of Starbucks Refreshers. Made with green coffee extract and fresh fruit juices, these drinks are the perfect lunchtime pick-me-up. A tall Very Berry Hibiscus Refresher has just 60 calories, while the Cool Lime flavor comes in at just 40 calories for a tall. Stay tuned later this summer for the debut of the Valencia Orange flavor. Starbucks, anyone?

Exercising will benefit you in so numerous ways encompassing delayed aging, strengthening and heaviness decrease. Alternate those bursts of high power exercising with low power exercising such as simple cardiovascular, hiking and walking.
