Simple. Nutritious. Tasty.
Hey Folks! Justine here..
These are three of the food principles I typically follow.
Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day (although every meal tends to be my favorite meal of the day). I aim to get in healthy carbs especially if I’m working out after (whole wheat toast - bread won’t kill you), eggs and Turkey bacon for protein (I go with turkey for less saturated fat) avocado and one yolk for fats, and why not throw in some veggies!
This is a variation of one of my go-to savory breakfasts (although I do love my pancakes and waffles). FUELing your body can seem complex, but when you break it down and understand what you’re eating and why, it can be pretty easy and maintainable.
A little about me: I’ve spent the last four years heavily focused on my personal nutrition and eating habits, and often times way more than I should have been for my own mental health. The last six months, I worked on my Precision Nutrition Level 1 certification to further my education around food, and specifically sports nutrition. I did this to be able to help others with their own nutritional health, as well as educate myself further and ease stress by understanding why we actually do need carbs or fat.
For me, balance is very important. Balance in life, balance in fitness (I lift and also do yoga) and balance in food (we need energy to do the things we want to do in and outside the gym!)
I plan to continue to share easy meals and tips/tricks you can incorporate into your daily eating routine, because who doesn’t love food and feeling good about what you’re putting in your body?!
Is there anything you’re struggling with or meals you’re trying to “make healthier?” DM to chat!
