Nutrition WOD?

For those of you interested in Paleo but coming up with meals seems hard, the folks over at Crossfit Omaha have made it easy for you.  They are doing a 30 day eating plan with 3 meals a day including a snack.  They list recipes and ingredients.  Even if you are just curious as to what eating "clean" looks like, check it out.

Here is what Monday looks like.

Breakfast:
Grilled Garlic Mushrooms w/ Bacon
2 cups mushrooms, sliced
6 slices of bacon
3 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
3 tbsp coconut oil
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
salt and pepper (optional)

Combine in a bowl and then place in heated pan. Stirring occasionally, cook for 5-8 minutes.

Lunch:
Caesar Salad
6 slices of bacon
4 cups of chopped green leafy veggie of choice
2 hard boiled eggs
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
olive oil and vinaigrette for dressing


Dinner (serves 2):
Beef w/ Zucchini
280g beef, cut into strips
2 tbsp of coconut oil
1 onion finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
4 tomatoes, chopped
1/2 tsp salt - 1 tsp ground pepper
1/3 cup water
4 small zucchinis, cut crossways into pieces
1 red capsicum, diced

Fry beef until all sides are browned using coconut or avocado oil. Add onions, garlic, tomatoes, water, salt and pepper; cover and simmer for an hour. Check from time to time to ensure mixture has not become too dry; add more water if necessary.

Stir in zucchini and capsicum pieces and simmer for a further 20 minutes. Serve.

Snack (1 time so choose wisely):
Fruit and Nut Snack
Dried Apricots
Chopped pecan nuts (or choice)
Pumpkin Seeds
Cinnamon
(it would be in your best interest to add beef jerky to this snack)
