Greens & Proteins – Meal Prep

by Tuesday, October 7, 2014

One of the KEY attributes to my healthy lifestyle is preparation. I’ve been called over efficient – but truly in the beginning of each week I consider my eating, drinking and gym schedule. Based on the activities myself and my S.O. have, I prepare accordingly. On any given day he or I may have a business lunch or dinner or even just dinner or drinks with friends after work.  Based on that I figure out for how many days I will need to buy and prepare fresh food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Also how heavy or light we can eat based on the days activities. A typical pre-prepared lunch for him consists of something green, some protein and a healthy filler like quinoa or a light pasta for carb intake.

Example.

1 Baked fish fillet – you can really use any fish

1 cup of any green vegetable

1 cup of quinoa – prepare as directed

Fish –  mix 1/2 tablespoon of OLIVE OIL with 1 tsp cajan spice (1 tablespoon per 2 fillets) drizzle over fish

Green – sprinkle 2 teaspoons of Olive Oil over, add red pepper flakes to taste & lightly salt.

Bake @ 350 degrees for 25 minutes.

Package meals individually for convenience.

*Cook in foil to avoid clean up

Eat Gorgeously!
