Tacos on Tacos!

My favorite way to meal prep is to take time ONE day and bulk prep tons of veggies, carbs, protein, sauces, and sides that can mix or match to make meals all week long. Yes, taking 2 hours out of your already busy Sunday sounds insane at first, but it will be so worth it when there are OPTIONS in your fridge! Eating the same thing for days is sometimes cost and time-efficient, but, when my meals aren’t boring, I am so much less likely to look forward to them!

For this week’s newsletter, I’ve revamped my nutrition plan’s weekly meal plan into a buffet-style guide all about TACOS! Yup, you read that right - you can eat some variation of tacos, every day and still keep things meal plan approved. I love it! Let’s celebrate Cinco de Mayo all month long!

The Extreme Cobb Salad

So you put in the work and are now STARVING! What should you eat post-workout to 1.) Actually REFUEL your body and 2.) Stick to your nutrition goals?

The best answer depends on your workout type + intensity. Our post-workout meals are not a one-size-fits-all suggestion, but here is a great tip to get started on the right track - skip alcohol or high-fat foods within the first hour of your workout. 

🍺 Alcohol can halt your recent training gains and stall your muscles from recovering properly. 

🍟 Healthy fats, like sliced avocado, are okay, but high fat/low nutrient foods that are greasy will leave you feeling sluggish + bloated, not fueled.

• 2 ears corn on the cob, shucked

• 1 cup chopped cucumber (approx. 2⁄3 medium)

• 1 cup chopped tomatoes (approx. 1½ medium)

• 1 medium avocado, chopped

• 8 slices cooked turkey bacon, chopped

• ½ cup FIXATE Ranch Dressing (search separate recipe for FIXATE Ranch Dressing or choose any clean dressing of your choice)
  

Instructions

1. Heat grill (or grill pan) to medium-high.

2. Lightly coat chicken and corn with spray; season with salt.

3. Place chicken and corn on grill (or grill pan); cook for 10 minutes, turning as needed, until cooked through and slightly charred. Let cool until they can be handled.

4. Chop chicken; cut kernels from cob.

Skipping a meal and waiting several hours after working out to eat is the worst strategy to losing weight or gaining muscle.
