Week One of Six Week Health Challenge: "Oatmeal Chicken Meatball" for My Lunch

My colourful healthy lunch

Many people perceived that healthy eating is boring, it is about strict dietary limitation or depriving yourself from the food that you love. But to me, healthy eating is about feeling good and stabilizing your mood, improving your health and the ability of the food in giving you more energy.
