When you do not eat a proper meal to start your day, you will end up with low energy during the the day along with carb and sugar cravings at night! This is due to blood sugar imbalance. Here's a simple menu to prevent this from happening to you. I also give a vegetarian option for each meal:
Daily Meals-
Meal #1
2 eggs, oven roasted vegetables, avocado, asparagus, ricotta or goat cheese, salsa
or
Oatmeal with stevia, cinnamon, ground flax, mixed with berries.
Meal #2
String cheese & 10 almonds
or
Vegetables & hummus
Meal #3
Turkey roll-ups: Slices turkey, hummus, sprouts, tomato and avocado slices served over a mixed green salad
or
Black Beans in a whole wheat or sprouted tortilla or Sonoma Wrap (found at Trader Joe's) with lettuce, vegetables, avocado, salsa, peppers, cilantro.
Meal #4
Spaghetti squash topped with marinara meat sauce, broccoli, cauliflower, and zucchini served with a side salad.
or
Portabella Mushroom Pizza: 1 portabella mushroom (baked at 400 degrees, 10 minutes) pizza sauce, tofu (or grilled chicken if not vegetarian), olives, melted mozzarella cheese, oregano or pesto sauce
Meal #5
1/2 cup plain greek yogurt with cinnamon (stevia optional)
or
Almond butter and apples or celery
Hint for success! Every meal should contain some sort of protein!!! Don't believe me? Just ask your metabolism!
