8. Recipe Building Tips & Tricks
Macro Balancing: When building your meals, aim for a balance of protein, carbs, and healthy fats. A good rule of thumb is to make protein the star of the meal (about 30-40g per serving), followed by a modest amount of carbs (25-35g), and a smaller portion of fats (10-15g).
Meal Prep: Spend one day a week preparing and portioning out your meals. This saves time and ensures you always have healthy options ready to go.
Smart Substitutions: If you're craving pasta, swap out regular pasta for zucchini noodles or spaghetti squash or even Costco has some edamame noodles now. If you're looking for a low-calorie dessert, make protein rice cakes (mix some protein powder with 0% plain greek yogurt and spread on top) or use greek yogurt in place of heavy creams.
Seasoning & Spices: Keep a variety of spices on hand to elevate flavor without adding extra calories. Try using garlic, cumin, paprika, turmeric, and cayenne pepper for a flavor explosion!
Hydration: Don't forget to drink water throughout the day. Staying hydrated helps with digestion, energy levels, and muscle recovery.
Cooking Techniques: Opt for grilling, steaming, or baking instead of frying to reduce unnecessary calories and fats. Use non-stick pans and minimal oil or butter when cooking.
