I wanted to share my 'meal plan' to help others who may be gluten/wheat/dairy free like me or for those who may be interested in my everyday intake for fitness and health reasons.
I say 'meal plan' in this way because I'm not one to follow any set guidelines, If I want to eat some free from chocolate I will! Plus I have a fast metabolism. My working day starts at 8 and finishes at 6:30/7 then it's off to the gym!
I listen to my body every single day considering I can suffer from stomach aches due to my Colitis, I make a conscious effort to watch what I eat whilst not depriving myself of treats every now and then.
I hope this gives you an idea of what my everyday meals are like and how often I eat plus my meal sizes especially on days I am at the gym.
Enjoy!
6:45 Breakfast:
Scrambled Egg plus salt and pepper.
No added milk, just 2/3 eggs.
This is my basic before work brekkie that is quick and easy for me, I'll be full for atleast two hours after breakfast. I start work at 8 and at 10 I will have a snack e.g. Bananas, Plums, Pomegranate.
Saturday Morning:
Free From Tescos rolls with FF Butter, brown sauce and 2 eggs.
I would usually have a bacon sandwich too lol
12:30 Lunch:
Peanut chicken with noodles.
Marinated chicken in soy sauce and lime to tenderise the chicken, then I made a sauce with ginger, garlic, lime zest, honey, curry powder and peanut butter (played it by ear when measuring).
Put the chicken in the marinade with coconut milk and poached it. Then heated it through on a low heat then added the noodles, spinach, green beans. Warm through till ready to eat.
This dish is delicious!! Found the recipe online but can't seem to find the link, this is again all free from! I love a hot lunch so I would usually freeze my meals then defrost when at work.
3:00 Snacks- I would usually snack on dry mango, a free from chocolate snack or my snack a jacks salt and vinegar flavour.
5:30 before Gym meal:
Salmon.
I would usually cook some Salmon at work with turmeric and salt, this works great for me so I'm not majorly hungry during my gym sesh. I always drive straight to the gym from work so I won't be eating till later on that night.
8:00/8:30 Dinner:
Lamb Meatballs with Rice.
Fry the onions and carrots with the leeks til soft, add the meatballs (Tescoes) and fry them over then add tin of tomatoes with garlic, mixed herbs and lastly spinach.
Plain rice.
I love Meatballs and Rice, they're certainly filling and the mixed veg taste beautiful with it.
