Last week I posted my fitness & health routine where I told you that I have made the decision to simply go back to my semi low carb diet I was doing before I went wheat free. On top of that, whenever I do eat pasta, bread or the like, I will make sure that it is wheat free from now on. In a way that means I’m combining the two. And to show you some more food ideas of what I tend to eat, I took some pics again. I’ve been trying some old favorite, new combinations and I even had porridge for the first time in my life. Here’s what I ate these past 2 weeks.
P.S. I really enjoy doing these type of posts. Let me know in a comment below if you do too and I will see if I can make it a weekly or biweekly thing.
Breakfast:
My new favorite breakfast cereal: super food mix with assorted raw nuts. In this mix you can find: goji berries, mulberries, inca berries, cranberries, raw cashew nuts, raw almonds & raw hazelnuts.
I used it in two slightly different breakfast meals. On the left you can see Greek yoghurt, kiwi fruit, flaxseeds, agave nectar & superfood mix. On the right you can see plain yoghurt, superfood mix with assorted raw nuts, kiwi fruit & flax seeds.
I’ve been adding flax seeds to my breakfast every morning now and it’s doing wonders for my stomachaches.
My new favorite late morning breakfast: buckwheat porridge! On the left you can see it while it’s still cooking. On the right you can see the finished product. I was going for a bit of treat here with raisins, dark chocolate sprinkles, honey, cinnamon & flaxseeds.
Another favorite breakfast which is a bit more simple: Greek style yoghurt, honey, flax seeds, walnuts, kiwi fruit. I’m also digging my Greek style yoghurt lately.
Another late breakfast which I had before working out. I decided I needed a bit more to keep me going that morning and went with a 2 egg omelet, which I fluffed up with cream cheese, added fiber throughflax seeds, and some avocado and cheese for some extra nutrients.
Lunch:
The simplest home made salad: cucumber, lettuce, cherry tomato, olives, walnuts and goat’s cheese.
This requires some work, but it’s super delicious: cucumber, cherry tomato, olives, blue cheese, cashew nuts, and marinated cajun chicken salad.
And another super simple one: lettuce, cucumber, tomato, bell pepper, corn & feta cheese salad.
Healthy pancakes for lunch! Banana-egg-oat pancakes with cinnamon & berry nut mix. Yup that’s right, no flour needed to make this delicious meal.
If you need a lunch that fills you right up you can go for this avocado, cream cheese, cucumber, pickles, onions, capers, and tomato salad. I added half an avocado, a heaping table spoon of cream cheese and some left over veggies that I had lying about. I used to make this with mayonnaise, but opted for cream cheese this time as I thought it would be better and it was!
Dinner:
Yummy dinner for which I paid a heavy price. I had this creamy salmon, zucchini, leak pasta two days in a row which resulted in a day of stomachaches and nausea. It was delicious though and well worth the price.
I love make shift dinners. When I have no time to really cook and plenty of food in the fridge I tend to simply throw things together. Here you see my left over dinner which included mature Gouda cheese with some mustard, olives, rice cake with apple spread & some left over protein shake.
And another make shift dinner: raw herring with fresh cut onions (it’s a Dutch thing) and some bacon & eggs with nutritional yeast.
Shakes:
All of these shakes I had in combination with one of the meals you can see above, or I had them as lunch.
The one on the left is a strawberry, raspberry, banana protein shake. On the top right you can see a banana, kiwi fruit, apple, chocolate sprinkle, honey, avocado, protein shake. And the bottom right shows you a cherry chocolate protein shake. When I say chocolate I mean that the chocolate comes from raw cocoa powder rather than chocolate sprinkles which I also use. That has to be my new favorite addition to shakes.
Do you have any meals that you would like to see from me?
Lekker zeg!
Dank je.
die ontbijtjes zien er goed uit! 😀
Thanks. Ik probeer zeker mijn ontbijt zo goed mogelijk in elkaar te zetten.
ziet er stuk voor stuk heerlijk uit! nu heb ik trek <3
Sowwy 😉
Raw fish with onions? Hmmmm, that is definitely a dutch thing!
I love to have fish – I usually just cook it in the oven with some salt and butter. I had River Cobbler on Friday. I don’t get fish too often because it can be expensive.
I also love what you call “make shift dinners”. I often just get cheese, cucumber, humous, celery, etc from the fridge and eat it this way. I much prefer my salad this way actually.
