Whole Food / Plant Based

Check out the "Food Choices" documentary.

Here are some suggestions for easy / awesome meals... eating like this takes time and it will be an adjustment... please make the leap.  Go for it. I predict it will be life changing.

Breakfast: 
  • Oats, organic banana, frozen/defrosted organic strawberries, organic syrup/honey, organic flax/chai meal... mash it all together... add hot water.
  • Oats, organic banana, organic raisins, dash of almond/cashew milk unsweetened... mash it all together... add hot water.
  • Organic sprouted waffles/english muffins/bread (recommend Ezekiel brand or similar.. u can find them in freezer section of grocery store), organic flax/chai meal organic banana, frozen/defrosted organic blueberries.. drizzle a touch of organic syrup/honey on top.

Lunch: 
  • Organic sweet potato, a huge portion of organic greens (spinach/kale/cabbage), any other organic veggies (beets/broccoli/cauliflower), touch of organic fruit (bananas/dried figs/dried dates/raisins), touch of seasoning (ginger/cinnamon), touch of tumeric/pepper for health and stomach, 1/4 - 1/3 can of organic beans 
  • Organic sprouted bread, organic peanut butter (small amount), organic raisins/banana, arugula on top (i know it sounds weird but try it) 
  • Potato, organic gluten free soy sauce or coconut aminos, a huge portion of organic greens, other organic veggies, nutritional yeast, 1/4 - 1/3 can of organic beans
lunch!

Snacks:
  • Small handful of almonds or other nuts 
  • Organic carrots are a freaking awesome snack 
  • Small handful of organic pumpkin seeds 
  • Haven't tried this.. might be good for long runs/rides Vegan Power Bars
  • Lauren loves these Vegan Buddha Balls
snacks that I made/used for a 3hr ride on the indoor rollers

Dinners: (These recipes are all very easy to make... please be sure to remove any/all oils from recipes.. you don't need oil and it is very very processed and high in fat / calories).  Dinners should be based on veggies (organic and uncooked as possible), then legumes (organic), then grains (quinoa is your friend)

Drinks:
  • Do you drink coffee? If so then switch to cold brew. Let me know if u want me to list the way that I make it. Cold brew is less acidic so better on stomach / digestion / etc. 
  • 1-2 tbsp apple cider vinegar, 1/8 organic lemon slice, 1 glass of water 
  • 1/8 organic lemon slice, 1 glass water 
  • Green tea 
  • NO alcohol if you can manage it.
