Morning after cocktails

IMG_20181118_112941_288

Because I had a couple of cocktails last night I wanted to make sure I replenished with lots of water and a big breakfast meal.

I sauteed raw baby spinach then mixed in 1 cup of egg whites. Topped it with homemade tomatillo salsa, avocado and beet & cabbage sauerkraut. I’m also having rolled oats with almond milk, PB powder and honey as well as 1/2c of blueberries.

This meal is loaded with:
🐔Protein

🍃Spinach nutrients like Vit A & E, zinc & iron

😊Fermented beets & cabbage by @wildbrine provide probiotics, nitrates and immune boosting benefits

🥑Avocado provides Omega-3 fatty acids, lutein & beta-carotene

✳Blueberry nutrients like potassium, folate, & Vit C as well as flavonoids with potent antioxidant capacity

🍯Raw Unfiltered Honey is also loaded with antioxidants as well as riboflavin, manganese, and calcium

Happy Sunday ✌🏼

Sauteed Veggies with Rainbow Chard

wpid-PhotoGrid_1389759119346.jpg

I’ve been meal prepping for a while and the usual suspects in my sauteed veggies are zucchini, crimini mushrooms, yellow onions, garlic, poblano pepper and spinach or kale. I like adding herbs like cilantro or basil or fennel seed and spices like turmeric, pepper, sea salt, garam marsala or cayenne. 

Today, I’m switching things up a bit and cooking with Rainbow Chard for the first time this week! In the pic you’ll see a beautiful batch of a new kind of sauteed veggies along with protein! This includes:

  • 2tbsp of coconut oil
  • 6 purple potatoes
  • 1 Poblano Pepper
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • handful of baby carrots
  • 2 zucchinis
  • handful of crimini mushrooms
  • 2 bundles of scallions
  • 2 rainbow chard leaves
  • cilantro, sea salt & pepper

This yields about 6 cups. For protein, I’ve got 1lb of ground chicken (4 servings) & 1lb of shrimp (4 servings)!

An all organic meal for days!
