Include your Protein
When you are trying to change your lifestyle to incorporate fat burning foods, you really need to get some protein in every meal. Protein has many benefits including keeping you full longer and turning on a fat burning mechanism in your body. Most people think that just because they are eating breakfast, they have to eat traditionally breakfast-y foods. You don’t, and frankly, I rarely do, but here are some choices for either mindset.
Option One
Scramble two whole organic eggs and cook them up in some organic butter. Add a bunch of chopped herbs and serve them with a side of oven roasted chunks of sweet potato. Make a cup of good organic black coffee and sweeten it with stevia if you need the added flavor.
Option Two
Toast up a slice of sprouted grain bread. Top it with some raw nut butter, almond is my favorite. Sprinkle on some cinnamon. Cut up some chunks of pineapple and boost the protein in the meal by having a hard-boiled, organic egg on the side.
Option Three
Prepare a pot of organic, steel cut oatmeal in the evening. The reason for making it the night before is that steel cut oats take about 30-45 minutes to cook and not everyone has that kind of time in the morning.
In the morning, reheat the oatmeal in a pan with some water. Then when the oats are hot, you can add a couple of eggs and gently mix them in. The heat from the oats will cook the eggs into a kind of poached or shirred consistency. You can also have a piece of whole fruit with this meal if you feel the need for something sweet.
Option Four
One of my favorite breakfasts involves taking some organic, nitrate and nitrite free turkey slices and wrapping them around a crisp apple. I eat these rolls alongside a few raw pecans and enjoy a mug of herbal tea to finish off my meal.
Option Five
Steak! I know that many think of steak as solely a dinner food, but nothing gets me going in the morning like a nice piece of meat. I have a long time between my breakfast and when I can sit down for lunch and if I don’t want to be snacking all morning, steak with a side of salad and even a sweet potato is a perfect breakfast for me. I save lighter meals for later in the day, especially at night when I don’t want to feel weighed down before I head to bed.
Healthy meal plans don’t have to be complicated or bizarre. It just takes a bit of planning and a creative twist. Bon Appétit!
