Sample Meals

I have been asked to compile a list of what I eat. I mapped out a couple of days, however, I urge anyone that is thinking about starting a clean eating lifestyle to get Tosca Reno's books. There are tons of recipes and cooking tips in her books.

Monday:
Breakfast:
scrambled egg whites, 1/2 slice of cheddar cheese made with 2% milk, 2 slices of canadian bacon, 1 slice of Ezekiel bread

Midmorning meal:
2 protein pancakes (see receipe in a post a few days ago)
2 wedges of homemade yogurt cheese (or use a laughing cow light)

Lunch:
Flatout Flat Bread, Arugula, Chicken Breast, roasted red pepper hummus

Mid afternoon meal:
fresh veggies dipped in 0% Fage (non-fat greek yogurt)

Dinner:
Bison Burger on whole wheat bun, sliced tomato, lettuce, and onion

Dessert:
1 Tablespoon Almond Butter (I like it right off the spoon, or you can spread it on a couple of apple slices)

Tuesday:
Breakfast:
Powershake--1 cup blueberries, 1 cup spinach, 1 scoop vanilla whey, 4oz of natural fruit juice of your choosing, 4oz of water. Blend.

Midmorning:
2 slices of turkey breast lunch meat. I swear that Costco has the best Honey Roasted Turkey Breast (all natural). 60 calories per slice and a whopping 9 grams of protein in each.
1 piece of Ezekiel bread

Lunch:
Flatout Pizza: 1 Flatout Flatbread, 1/4 cup of organic pizza sauce, mozzerella cheese made with skim and 2% milk, lots of veggies of your choosing. I like spinach, mushrooms, onion, artichoke, and green pepper. Add a slice or two of canadian bacon.

Midafternoon
Muscle Milk Light (chocolate). I don't make these a regular part of my diet, however, these are great for when you are on the run or in meetings, like I often am.

Dinner:
Steamed veggies, 1/2 of a large sweet potato, fish.

Dessert: Greek yogurt and fresh (or frozen-no sugar added) strawberries.
