An important part of any healthy diet is protein. Your body uses protein to build and repair tissues and also to make things like hormones and other body chemicals. Protein is the building blocks of various parts of your body such as your hair and nails.

If you are exercising frequently then it is even more important to have protein in your diet to maintain muscle.

My diet is high in protein. I personally aim to get 40% of my calories from a protein source. This is a high percentage, but it helps maintain my muscle mass since I am weight training 4-5 days per week. [Read more…]

I personally love taking a few hours over the weekend to prepare lunch, snacks and a few extra foods to use for breakfast and dinner throughout the week. It saves me time and keep me from eating out every day!

Meal prep helps me eat clean meals all day long and I’m not having to hit up vending machines or convenience stores because I am starving. Instead I have a lunch bag full of foods to get me through the day.

These meal prep burrito bowls are delicious and make a great healthy lunch for the week! What makes them even better? [Read more…]

Chicken can be a very healthy and versatile food, which makes it perfect for meal prep. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are high in protein and are low in fat.

One 3oz serving of cooked chicken breast is 120 calories and provides 26g protein. Boneless, skinless chicken thighs are another good option for a clean eating diet. Chicken thighs provide more flavor, but also have a higher fat content.

It is rare for me to meal prep for the week without cooking chicken in some way, shape or form. Both chicken breasts and chicken thighs can be prepared easily. My preferred methods of cooking including baking, grilling or cooking in a slow cooker. [Read more…]

I want to talk about these Lemon Pepper Chicken Thighs, but first I want to talk about Top Golf.

We did end up meeting up in Denver to go to Top Golf and it was awesome! I highly recommend it.

It is a really big place with three different levels of area to hit golf balls. Each group has their own bay and you hit out into what looks like a normal driving range, but with targets set up in different spots. Each ball has a tracker in to so it knows where you hit and how many points you get. The point is to get the closest to the “pin”, but there are places around the pin that earn you points as well. Each target area is color-coded based on difficulty and each game has you hit at different targets. You get to choose what type of game you play.

It is sort of difficult to explain, but it makes a ton of sense when you get there. The best comparison I could think of was an electronic dart board. You can pick different games that you want to play and it scores how/where you throw based on what game you are playing. It is similar to that. [Read more…]
