I was thinking that we needed a recipie thread on here.
I wanted to share some of my favorites:
Breakfast (pre-workout)
3 whole jumbo eggs (scrambled or fried, depending on my mood) - 24g protein
2 pan fried slices of bacon (thick cut) - 8g protein
2/3 cup whole rolled oats - cooked to oatmeal with 1 1/3 cup water until done, adding in 1 tbsp of whey protein, 1 tsp honey, fresh fruit (usually apples or blueberries) = 45-50g carbs - 8-10g protein
8 oz Fairlife 2% milk = 13g protein
Total macronutrients:
Carbs approx 60g
Protein approx 58g
Fat approx 30g
This makes for one amazing preworkout - I eat this about 1.5 hours before the gym.
I have a shake after my sessions with 1.5 scoops of whey isolate and 4oz (1/2 cup 2% fairlife and 1/2 cup water) = 40g protein
About an hour after this I have a full lunch.
Lunch:
6-8oz chicken breast - baked or pan seared - olive oil and seasonings or 8oz baked salmon fillet
1-1 1/2 cup medium grain white rice or 1 whole 10-14oz baked sweet potato
1 cup dark veggies (brocolli, asparagus, zuchini, etc.)
Total macronutrients:
Protein approx 45-50g
Carbs approx 65g
Fats approx 10-15
I will post up more recipies as I think of them. Most are simple, but very tasty. Feel free to post up your favorite foods in this thread.
