How to Use the Daily Menus

You can ALWAYS mix up the order of the meals to suit you – I have been known to have dinner for breakfast and a green smoothie for dinner many times.

Your recommended serving sizes are for women, and are a great place to start out. They can be adjusted up or down as you go. If you’re not hungry for everything on your plate, don’t force yourself to eat it all. Conversely if you’re still hungry, that’s a great time to add a little extra.

Your energy needs will change daily, and this is the part where you get to start practicing listening to your body’s biofeedback. Because you’re feeding it the right nutrients, your body will let you know when it’s hungry, and when it’s time to stop eating. Feel free to adjust the serving sizes as you go.

How to See the Nutrients in Your Meals

In each of your meals, I’ve used a letter to represent which nutrients are included to help you recognize them.

P: ProteinC: CarbG: Greens/VeggiesF: Fat

V: the Vegetarian/meatless option - will include the nutrients for you as well.

This can be super helpful if you are trying to swap out different foods for the foods in your meals - if for example you are dining out, or haven’t done

all of your prep yet and looking for good alternatives that would work just as well as what’s on the daily menu.

If you can start to recognize the nutrients in foods you’re familiar with, you can more easily start putting together more balanced meals in general. Say for example you are just starting with the plan and you haven’t done all the prep yet, but you did make breakfast and you have a green smoothie.

You go to work for the day, but don’t have lunch with you and end up going to a restaurant with your co-workers. You pull up the daily menu from your meal plan and see that you have a Turkey Burger (P), Wild Rice (C) and Avocado (F) listed. You can easily then order a lunch that resembles the nutrients in that meal.

While the restaurant may not have a burger with avocado and a side of rice listed on their menu, by looking through the items listed for all their dishes, you may see that they do have avocado, they do have a burger and they don’t have rice, but they do have quinoa and they also have a roasted potato option. You could ask for a burger with a side of avocado, no bun, and a side of quinoa or the roasted potato - as both would be great options.

Be aware that restaurant serving sizes are often larger than what we’d cook at home, and that what they’re cooking with and adding to the foods may also be different. But choosing the best option for the situation and including the nutrients you need is always the best way to go when you’re not able to eat your home cooked foods.

How about another example….say you didn’t make the protein muffins? No problem. Look for a protein bar with the least amount of additives and sugar in it.

This is actually quite tricky, as most “protein bars” are really just glorified candy bars by the time the manufacturer gets done with them. It’s best to use them as a backup only - but it’s better to eat something than skip eating entirely.

Again, just do the best you can with the situation you’re in, and start to work towards doing a little more food preparation each week so you can set yourself up for success on the go.

A great place to start if you’re new to all of this is to make sure you have a good breakfast each day, and are working on getting green smoothies in 4-5 days a week.

You can start adding in more and more of the good meals as you get comfortable with the recipes. Small daily changes really do add up to big results - don’t force yourself to learn all of this at once.

Give yourself time to get used to knowing what nutrients your body likes and responds well to. You’re going to do great!

Suggested Food Prep Sequence

You don’t have to prep everything I’ve suggested; you can prep more, less, cook breakfast first thing rather than pre-making eggs - play around with this program to see what fits your life best.

I prefer doing a lot of prep ahead of time as it ensures my success day after day throughout the week, and gives me so much more free time to focus on other things.

This is a suggested sequence of steps you could use to prep all of the items listed above. Whether you continue to practice this way or simply take away parts of it that work, organized cooking and food- prepping is a valuable lifestyle skill that you can use for years to come.

1. I like to begin my prep by starting with the things that need some time to cook, so I can use the time they’re cooking to work on other things. More gets done. For this week, start out by turning your oven to 350 F, and while it’s pre-heating, follow the steps needed for the Buffalo and White Bean Chili. Once everything is in the pot, you don’t need to do much else to the chili — just let it cook down.

2. Peel and dice the Sweet Potatoes — get them in the oven and set a timer for 20 minutes. They may need more time to cook, just make sure to check at 20 minutes to ensure they don’t get overcooked.

3. Season your Rosemary Baked Chicken Breasts and get them in the oven with the potatoes. They have similar cooking times, so they should be done around the same time.

4. Get the Quinoa cooking on the stove. It doesn’t need much attention, just a stir here and there. Mix up the batter for the Blueberry Protein Muffins and distribute among the muffin tins.

5. Season your flank steak for the Steak Salad and get it cooking in a skillet. Once the steak is cooked through, prepare your Scrambled Eggs. I like to cook mine in the same skillet as the steak to absorb all of the flavor left over. Set up the Asparagus and steam it for 10 minutes.

6. By now the sweet potatoes, rosemary chicken, and quinoa should be finished cooking. Take everything out of the oven and put the muffins in for 20 minutes.

7. Chop the vegetables for the Weekly Green Salad and toss with the greens. Whisk up the dressing separately. Measure and mix the Trail Mix and store in an airtight container or Ziplock bag.

8. Finally, package up your Green Smoothie Bags if you decided to make them ahead of time. If not, make sure your greens are washed and bagged and the fruit is clean and ready to be added daily.

Weekly Green Smoothie Prep:

When I get home, the first thing I do is wash my fruits and vegetables in a basin of warm water with a little apple cider vinegar (approximately 1/4 cup for a sink half full of water).

Since some of my fruits and veggies are going into smoothies this week, I’ll sometimes save myself time later by bagging up ingredients like the greens and some fruits and setting them aside for quick smoothie making later.

I’ll also chop up any greens I plan to cook with later as it’s super convenient to have pre-washed and ready veggies on hand. For example, I’ll take the stalky stems off the kale and chunk it up into a bag so I can quickly cook it later.

These are all optional ideas to help you get organized - try them out to see what you like and find most helpful. Here is a quick video to show you how I sometimes do green smoothie set-ups.

Carbs

quinoaYield: approximately 5 servings*You will need: medium sized pot, measuring cups

1 1/4 cups dry quinoa (look for sprouted quinoa - the company Tru Roots makes it - or use optional soaked method below)2 1/2 cups water

Optional Soaked method – to partially predigest the grain - Place quinoa in a bowl and cover with water and 1 T apple cider vinegar. Cover and allow to soak for 8 hours. Drain through a cheesecloth or similar and cook in fresh water. This is easily accomplished by setting it out first thing in the morning, and cooking it when you come home, or start it at night and cook it the next day.

1. Measure quinoa and rinse very well in a mesh strainer.2. Add water to a saucepan and then add the quinoa. If you soaked your quinoa overnight,

reduce the amount of water to 1 3/4-2 cups.3. Cover and cook over medium heat until it comes to a low boil. 4. Reduce heat slightly and cook uncovered for 15-20 minutes or until quinoa has absorbed all

the water and is light and fluffy.

You can also cook quinoa in coconut milk and add fresh basil and salt, cook it with chicken stock or vegetable broth and add fresh herbs and/or vegetables - it’s a wonderful grain that takes on the flavor of whatever you add it to. It makes a great breakfast alternative to cereal, you can cook it with coconut milk or water and add raisins, nuts and cinnamon to it.

*Quinoa will be one of your staple carbs this week. The amount you’re making here will be enough if 1/2 cup serving is adequate for you. Increase the amount to 3 cups, and 5-6 cups water if the right amount is 3/4-1 cup per serving (men, those with more muscle, and extremely active individuals).

How to See the Nutrients in Your Meals

In each of your meals, I’ve used a letter to represent which nutrients are included to help you recognize them.

P: ProteinC: CarbG: Greens/VeggiesF: Fat

V: the Vegetarian/meatless option - will include the nutrients for you as well.

This can be super helpful if you are trying to swap out different foods for the foods in your meals - if for example you are dining out, or haven’t done all of your prep yet and looking for good alternatives that would work just as well as what’s on the daily menu.

If you go out to eat on a non-NSA day, try to order something similar to what you would have made.
