Clean Eating 101

Sorry for the lack of posts - getting up at 5am 3 times a week is exhausting - but great fun and makes you feel fantastic!

So thought I would give you an update on my meals.

For the first few weeks I was having a protein shake consisting of berries, fat free natural yoghurt, chia seeds, water, coconut oil and vanilla protein powder (a good brand is Sun Warrior - its $$ though but lasts a while).

I have since switched to porridge as I was getting a little bored with the same thing every day. I buy the High Fibre Uncle Toby's sachets of porridge (not flavoured), and use hot water, manuka honey and coconut oil to mix it into a warm breaky. I add berries, yoghurt and chia seeds for a little extra flavour.

For lunch I have been having meat and salad:

This is a chicken sausage roll made with chicken breast, grated zucchini and garlic, wrapped in a rye wrap and put in the oven for 30 mins.
The salad is made with avocado, spinach, tomato, spring onion, chia seeds and olive oil.

This salad is the same as above with tofu which has been cooked in olive oil and garlic, and a, organic Mediterranean veggie burger from IGA.

This salad is the same as above minus the Tofu. Then I have a sausage roll made with Steak instead of Chicken.

It is easy to eat clean if you are organised - doing a big cook on a Sunday and freezing your meals until you need them is a great way to get around planning your clean eating week.
