      I see its been quite a while since this has been added to. I've started eating lots of greek yogurt and looking for ways to change it up.

      1 C greek yogurt
      1/2 cup cinnamon granola
      1tbsp honey

      mix it all together and makes for a nice snack

        Below is my meal tonight:

        Spaghetti squash with light butter, Garlic, and salt/pepper to taste, light parmesean ~50cal per cup

        Spaghetti sauce~ 90cal per serving

        Grilled chicken breast ~110cal


        Total: 250 Calories

        recently gave spaghetti squash a try, it's awesome.

        cut it in half, remove innards, coat inside (bowl) with olive oil and salt&pepper, bake at 350° for about 50 minutes, let stand for 10 minutes or so to cool off, remove innards with a fork.

        prepare a little bit of olive oil in a skillet and throw in some shallots or onion along with some basil and minced garlic and toss in half of the removed squash and saute it all together.

          Protein Pancakes

          Ingredients

          * 1/2 cup rolled oats
          * 1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese (or low fat or full fat)
          * 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
          * 2 tbsp flaxseed meal
          * 1/4 tsp cinnamon
          * 1 tsp vanilla extract
          * 1/4 cup water
          * pinch of salt
          * 1/2 tsp aluminum-free baking powder
          * 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder

          * cooking spray or coconut oil
          * agave syrup

          Direction

          1. Heat medium size skillet to medium heat.
          2. Place the oats, cottage cheese, apple sauce, flax, cinnamon, vanilla extract, water, and salt in the blender and blend on high for 1 minute, until incorporated thoroughly.
          3. Add the baking powder and protein powder and give the blender a few quick pulses to incorporate.
          4. Coat the skillet with oil and pour 1/4 of the batter on the skillet.
          5. After bubbles begin to form around the edges, flip the pancake to cook the other side.
          6. Remove pancake and continue to cook the rest of the cakes.
          7. Serve with agave syrup, fruit, peanut butter, etc.

          Tip: Place cooked pancakes in a slightly warmed oven, to keep the heated while you finish making the rest of the batch.

            It's used instead of oil when baking, to keep the fat content down.

                My breakfast during the week

                Protein Smoothie recipe

                note: i try and eat all natural and organic if possible so if that isn't a concern then just use standard stuff. i just rough estimate the amount of fruit and veggies, flax milk. i just go for the consistency i want, not for quantity. i would also recommend adding frozen banana, but i can't eat it due to an allergy.

                2 cups good karma vanilla flax milk (estimate)
                1 scoop grass fed vanilla whey
                1 scoop plant based vanilla protein
                100-150mg natural caffeine
                200mg l-theanine
                600mg bcaa's
                300mg choline
                1/4" slice of fresh organic cucumber
                1 cup fresh organic strawberries (estimate)
                2 cups frozen organic pineapple chunks (estimate)
                1/2 cup frozen organic mixed berries (estimate)
                hand full of organic frozen baby kale or spinach


                optional: 1 tbsp organic heavy cream
                1-2 tsp honey if more sweetness is desired

                add to blender and blend thoroughly. makes about 40-50 ounces.

                      I was tired of having to leave the office to get food for lunch and then be starving again at 5pm so I started prepping my meals in advance on Sunday. 4 weeks strong so far. I like cooking but still value my free time so I keep it right at 2 hours from start to finish in the kitchen for 4-5 days worth of meals. Most of the time I have extra. I use an oven for potatoes and a big griddle that I set across 2 stove burners. The recipes are really simple and I actually look forward to eating. Not only that my digestion has improved and I no longer dread hitting the can. I drink 1-1.5 gallons of water a day with a splash of fresh squeezed lemon and cranberry juice for flavor. Occasionally I will have a glass of almond milk in the evening or some other type of juice. Im 6-1 225lbs and trying to just be fit. I would not mind losing some fat but definitely dont wanna drop any muscle mass. Any suggestions on improving my food intake?

                      7am Breakfast:
                      2 eggs
                      Cup of oatmeal
                      Cup of coffee

                      9am Breakfast:
                      4oz Blueberries
                      1 serving honey greek yogurt topped with chia seeds & honeybee pollen
                      1 Banana

                      11am Secondary Meal (1x day):
                      10-12oz fresh linguine pasta
                      3 bell peppers (red green, & yellow)
                      12oz sliced beef (ricewine vinegar marinade)

                      2pm 6pm 9pm Main Meals (2-3x day):
                      4lbs skinless boneless chicken breast
                      2 bushels asparagus (rotating with broccoli, greenbeans, and squash so far)
                      6 small sweet taters
                      2 of the cheapest apples

                      330pm Snacks:
                      Baby Bell Cheese Wheels
                      Celery & Peanut Butter
                      grape tomatoes
                      Handful of nuts
                      5.5oz V8 veg juice

                      7pm Preworkout
                      830pm Aftershock postworkout protein & banana
                      9pm Above mentioned meal


                      Potato Recipe:
                      Preheat oven to 400*
                      Peel and slice potatoes place in baking dish
                      Dash potatoes with turbinado and plenty of cinammon
                      Pour 3/4 cup of applejuice or water in bottom of pan with potatoes
                      Top potatoes with apple slivers. Peel apples to the core with peeler.
                      Bake for 45 minutes and remove.


                      Everything else is straight forward. I undercook all my veggies since I end up microwaving them for 2 minutes.

                        No, you are on the right track, now keep it up!!
                        I do the exact same thing on sundays as well.
                        The food looks excellent and most people don't realize how simple the concept really is!
                        Thank you for the pics too.
                        I have a ton of pics as well on my facebook and I will link over here whenever I get a chance.
