Complement your morning eggs by getting some zucchini, spinach, or red peppers to go with them. You can also chop up some lean chicken to mix with your eggs along with some goat cheeses.
* Cocunut milk is another essential for the fridge: it goes great with oatmeal or yogurt for a rich taste. * Cocunut milk is also a great source for healthy saturated fats.
Get some of the following foods to put in your fridge too:
*Yogurt, ricotta cheese, and cottage cheese. Mix ricotta and cottage cheeses together with berries for a great mid-morning meal.
* Flax seeds (whole). These need to be ground fresh so you don’t lose the omega-3 polyunsaturated fats. Put them in yogurt and on salads.
* Eggs. Get some great nutrition and some good cholesterol to boot!
* Butter. Use small portions and never ever use margarine (unless you enjoy heart attacks).
* Avocados. These are a great source of fiber, fats, and other nutrients.
* Whole grain wraps and bread.They should have 3 or 4 grams of fiber per 20 grams of carbohydrates.
* Rice bran and wheat germ. These add nutrients and fiber to smoothies.
* Spinach, lettuce, and shredded carrots for salads.
* Salad dressing made with Udo’s Choice oil blend, balsamic vinegar, and extra virgin olive oil.
Keep this food in the freezer:
* For variety, get different kinds of fish every week.
* Berries. Fresh berries should be frozen while in season, then enjoyed all year.
* Vegetables. Put away extra fresh vegetables while in season so you’ll have them for the rest of the year.
* Chicken breasts. For fast meals use these for salads and sandwiches.
* Exotic lean meats like buffalo, venison, or ostrich.Essential to a lean body, these meats are the healthiest around.
OK. Now, let’s see what’s good to keep in the cabinets.* Oat bran and cut oats for more fiber than instant oats.
* Coconut milk in a can. Transfer to a bottle in the refrigerator after opening.
* Teas for antioxidants such as oolong, white, roobios, and green.
* A natural sweetener like Stevia (much better for you than chemical sweeteners like Aspartame).
* Organic maple syrup for use in your post-workout smoothie.
* Honey (raw). Great to put into teas. Helps glucose metabolism.
* Brown rice or other with high fiber. Avoid White rice.
* Kidney beans (canned). Add to Mexican wraps for nutrition.Kidney beans are high in antioxidants.
