A couple of people have been asking me what a good post workout meal is. Since it is foodie Friday I thought I would share one of my faves! So, most of the time I just like to have my shakeology because it's quick, yummy, and fills me up. However, there are days where I really want to work on feeding my muscles (leg day anyone?).
This is just a half cup of cooked brown rice and quinoa (I like to buy the little bags from Costco! Super easy). For protein, I use about a 4 oz filet of white fish (I used flounder here) seasoned with mrs. Dash and other spices. I pop him in the oven for about 8-12 min depending on the thickness. I also put a little hot sauce and squeeze some lemon on top. (I do not like to cook with salt just because salt promotes water retention and bloat - use it if you must but just a pinch! ). To add some green to my plate I like to use broccoli or asparagus. Here I just laid out some asparagus in a layer on a baking sheet. I sprinkle it all with a little olive oil and pepper and then put in the oven to roast. Once everything is cooked, I plate it and drizzled some balsamic vinegar on top. Easy, delicious, healthy, and filling!
Try to it within 15-30 min post workout for best results
