No more boring recipes and meal preps!
Here are some healthy and tasty meal prep recipes to help you reach your goals this week or eat less processed foods!
โจBreakfastโจGrapefruit juice freshly squeezed and protein energy balls
๐Recipe for balls:
โขSoak about 3 cups dates in warm water for 10-20mins to soften (keep the date water!)
โขIn a food processor, add the dates with 3 cups total of a mix of pumpkin seeds, organic peanuts and coconut (can add whichever nuts and seeds you want!)
โขYou can add 1 scoop of chocolate protein powder or 1 scoop of cacao powder (not cocoa powder!).. add a good splash of water and add more as you pulse if you need.
โขYouโll have to stop, scrape and pulse again to really mix it well.
โขRoll in coconut and store in the fridge.
โจLunchโจ Sushi burritos (vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free)
๐prep the tofu by cutting it into cubes and frying it on pan with sesame oil and Celtic salt.
โขCook the rice and let sit to cool down a bit
โขprep your veggies into bite size (I did avocado and carrots)
โขIn a bowl of hot water, soak your first rice paper sheet and once itโs soft, lay it on the plate
โขlayer your rice and veggies and seaweed paper
โขadd another softened rice paper sheet and roll that one up again (trust me!)
โขfry it in sesame oil on all the sides to crisp it up
โขI dip them in vegan mayo mixed with siracha
โจSnack treat or dessertโจ Apple cake (vegan, gluten-free, refined-sugar-free) โจ Honestly what is life without something treat-ish sometimes! I rather have this than processed or white sugar and crummier oily ingredient based snack bread.
๐Recipe for the Apple cake:
Preheat oven to 325 and grease a loaf pan with avocado oil
โขMake the buttermilk and set aside for 5 mins: Mix 1 tbsp lemon juice + 1 cup soy milk
2.5 cups gluten-free flour (scoop into the measuring cup method)
1.5 cups coconut sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp Celtic salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/3 cup avocado oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
3 Tbsp applesauce
1 Apple peeled and cubed
Mix all the wet ingredients into one bowl.
Mix all the dry into another one.
Combine and donโt over mix so it stays fluffy.
Bake for 40 mins until the butter knife comes out clean. Watch the oven every so often as each stove is different.
Let it cool down for a few mins and then pop it out and let it cool completely on a baking rack.
