Meal plan around your macros AND your food preferences! Peep this macro based, balanced meal:
Pictured here is seasoned shredded pork + coconut cassava wraps + riced cauliflower + roasted plantains + sauteed greens. But if you’re like me, you see tons of possibilities to personalize it:
>> swap for a lower fat, higher protein option by using shredded chicken breast or white fish
>> keep carbohydrates low by skipping the wrap, loading up on sautéed greens and cauliflower
>> add more crunch with corn tortilla chips, dried plantains, roasted chickpeas
>> add more fat with sour cream, coconut cream, shredded cheese, avocado, or hummus
>> pack more carbohydrates by swapping cauliflower for rice or beans
>> make it vegetarian by swapping pork with beans, lentils, peas, or tofu
>> add more heat in seasonings, chili peppers, hot sauce
Even if you’re the only person in your household tracking macros, everyone will enjoy building their balanced meal out of these whole food ingredients.
Remember, you don’t have to be tracking to benefit from feeling full, satisfied and enjoying great energy all day long. The key is eating [[sizeable]] meals that contain a mix of all 3 macronutrients – like you see here!
