and secrets of what I eat and what I think is VERY important, as well as how to prepare it. I’m a very busy person and finding time to prepare each meal just isn’t in the cards. I’m sure most of you feel the same way. Over the years of eating right and helping others do the same I think a key component is sharing the easiest way to do so without sacrificing taste. Telling someone what to eat is pretty easy. Taking the time to share the best ways to prepare your food is an even bigger help.
Chicken: I usually buy my chicken at Costco; they have a great 12 pack of fresh not frozen boneless skinless chicken breast for a great price. With almost zero fat and low sodium, it is the best I have found. First I fire up the grill. The grill adds great flavor to everything. Next, I get a very large salad mixing bowl, add 2 ounces of extra virgin olive oil and all 12 breasts. Mix. After I feel the oil is spread well I add some garlic powder, black pepper, and basil. Then I toss again and grill to perfection!
Rice: I use white and brown rice depending on where I am in contest prep. I prefer using Minute Rice and I prepare 8-10 cups at a time. It’s easy, time efficient and tastes great on the re-heat in a sealed microwave safe container.
Potatoes: I use mainly sweet potatoes in my contest prep. Buying medium size potatoes makes cooking easy and usually around the portion size I use with my meal. I microwave them for7-8 minutes and they are ready to go. Weigh them and out the door they go with you.
Veggies: I buy frozen bulk organic vegetables. Most of the time a microwave thaw is quickest and they re-heat well. As far as asparagus, one of my favorites, I always buy fresh. Steaming in a convenient “steam bag” works great and is very quick as well.
I hope some of these little tips are helpful and make sticking to your diet easier. I find it is also helpful to cook in bulk! I prepare food on Sundays and Wednesdays for the days following. Remember planning a head will make sure you don’t miss a meal or have to sub it with something that sets progress back. Last tip, please make sure you monitor food temperature as you take it on the go. Nothing will destroy your contest prep like food that has gone bad.
