Most of the time I’ll prepare a couple of hard boiled eggs with some protein on the side (salami, cheese) and a toast with avocado/lemon. Other times I’ll chop up left over veggies and put them in a frying pan with olive oil and eggs.
I try to eat healthy plant based foods that are hearty and well seasoned, my favorite meals are vegan and Mexican, it takes me a couple hours to cook these because I like to be mindful and joyful while I’m cooking
I eat Indian medium spicy food. It takes me 30 mins to 60 mins to prepare each meal depending on the recipe and meal type. Lunch or dinner preparation usually takes about 1 hr
I recently became vegan and some days I make an exception and I’m more vegetarian. I don’t eat meat or cheese or eggs at all but occassionally allow myself milk chocolate or breads cooked with real butter. I was just browsing on a great recipe website called budget bytes to get some inspiration because sometimes I get bored. I eat alot of veggies and hummus. I’m not big on the plant based meat substitutes but I love the non dairy cheeses. I really like Follow Your Heart cream cheese on bagels and Stacy’s baked pitas chips. I’m a snackers as you can see. But for meals I eat alot of pasta and rice. Alot of sweet potatoes. As its winter I love hearty soups. There is such a variety out there and I long to be an adventurous eater.
I normally don’t have time to eat a big breakfast so I just have to do something quick. I want as much protein as I can though, so I normally have freezer breakfast I can just warm up. For example, today I am have a breakfast bowl and it only takes me three minutes to heat up but I stay full until lunch. I hope that helps!
I am trying to pick something healthy but also tasty. I could pick some kind of supergreen kale smoothie, but I know I wouldn’t be looking forward to it.. it’s important to pick things you love, but make sure you have plenty of protein and nutrients as well. My favourite combo is Baked beans (low sugar one) , peas, eggs (scrambled, poached, fried, boiled… I like to switch it up every day). An usually something extra like bread with ham/avo and piece of fruit. It’s a lot to take, when you are not used to eat breakfast at all, but it’s so tasty and filling so after day 3 you will be begging for some beans 😉
Mostly I have fruits (when I have time), a berry smoothly (when I’m in a rush), or oatmeal porridge (my comfort choice ☺️)
I usually eat a smoothie for breakfast consisting of oat milk, 1 banana, loads of blueberries, a big handful of spinach, 1 scoop plant protein (I use chocolate) and 1 tbsp flaxseed oil. Takes a total of 5 minutes to prepare – super easy! For lunch I typically eat a sandwich that has a lot of greens and some type of plant based protein source. Or leftovers from last night’s dinner. For dinner I typically cook and choose from an array of Indian or Thai dishes. It takes somewhere between 30 minutes to an hour depending on what I make.
I work from home so I usialøy have plenty of time to fox meals and such and don’t really go out to eat often. I try to focus on not eating so much processed and pre-prepared food. Crock pot meals are my go to!
Breakfast–eggs any way, I aim for Veggies and protein, also some bread.. If I want something sweet I go for yogurt with chia seeds, and fruits/protein pancakes Snack- Veggies, Guacamole, Hummus, or some Nuts Lunch- depends if I am home or in work, in work I usualy have some vegetable cream soup (pumpkin/cauliflower/….) or I buy a salad (Caesar..) Dinner- that is my biggest struggle, lol…
