Lentil Wraps🌯

Simple, nourishing alternative to regular wraps.

Naturally high in plant protein and fibre, helping you stay fuller for longer and supporting stable energy levels. They’re also rich in non-haem iron, folate and magnesium, which support overall health and muscle function.

Another bonus? Lentil wraps are budget-friendly, and an easy way to add more legumes to your meals. Fill them with your favourite veggies and protein for a balanced, wholesome meal. 🌱

Recipe provides 6 small wraps:
•75g Lentils
•180ml stock (I used chicken stock as I made chicken wraps)

Cocoa and milk make for an excellent quick and easy post-workout snack that is both delicious and beneficial for muscle recovery. The combination offers a good balance of protein and carbohydrates, essential for replenishing glycogen stores and aiding in muscle resynthesis after exercise. Milk provides a high-quality protein source, rich in essential amino acids necessary for muscle repair, while cocoa adds a touch of flavour and antioxidants, which can help reduce exercise-induced oxidative stress. This simple yet effective snack is not only nutritious but also incredibly easy to prepare, making it a convenient option for those on the go. Whether enjoyed as a chilled drink or a warm treat, cocoa and milk can be a delightful addition to your post-exercise routine, helping you recover and refuel efficiently.

Throughout your menstrual cycle, your hormones shift in ways that affect your energy, mood, cravings, and workout performance.

Instead of fighting it, you can fuel and adjust your training in sync with it!
