Welcome to my first blog post on how to eat healthy while trying to become more lean and toned. Eating to be healthy is great, but we don't want it to be boring. Eating healthy doesn't have to be expensive either. For the price of eating one meal at a fairly nice restaurant you can go to the grocery store and buy enough food to last you for 4 or 5 meals.
One of my favorite recipes is for Pepper Jack Chicken with Bacon. If you don't like spicy cheese you can substitute in any cheese you do like. It's simple to make as well. Just take 4 oz of cooked chicken, lay two strips of cooked bacon across the top and cover it with a slice of pepper jack cheese. Let the cheese melt on top and you have a delicious and healthy meal waiting for you. The great thing is, you can cook several chicken breasts at one time and have left overs for days.
Serve with some rice and spinach on the side and your meal is complete (carbs like rice should be eaten before 1 pm, if you are eating after that, leave the rice out). This recipe will give you about 30 grams of muscle building protein just from the chicken/bacon/cheese alone. Spinach is a very nutrient-dense food and the carbs from the rice will help keep you going during the day.
