Day 2 Maximize your potential

 In Uncategorized

At Aligned our dream is to see everyone maximize their God-given health potential.  This potential is inside everyone that breaths.  It may not be realized yet but it is there. Today’s recipes can be found here.

One of the ways to develop your health is to leverage the energy systems you have in your body.  If your body is using sugar as its nutritional fuel then it is still working and making the necessary energy that you need to survive.  Being a sugar-burner is less effective than being a fat-burner.  If you use fat sources as your energy then you become more effective at using fat for your body’s daily energy needs. This process is called ketosis.

Here are your meals for Day 3 of your ketogenic plan:

Meal #1

Chocolate smoothieJonandJulieannaChocolateAlmondButterGreenSmoothie

Place all ingredients in a blender except the Protein. Blend all ingredients for 15-30 seconds until desired consistency is achieved.  Optional: Add more water or Ice to make the drink less thick.

Add protein and blend for 3-5 seconds.  Serve in a glass.

 

You will find that a smoothie for your first meal will really fill you up for the whole morning, perhaps even until after your normal lunch time.

You may substitute chia seeds for other healthy fats.  Coconut oil is an excellent choice, hemp hearts, omega-3 oils, nut butters are some choices for other fat sources.

This meal will become a regular part of your health routine because it is so quick and easy to make!!!

Snack

Celery sticks with Almond Butter

Meal #2

Chicken Sausage Stir Fry  Sausage-brocolli-small

Slice the 4 chicken sausages. Start to boil water on the stove. While that is happening, add your sausage to a pan on high heat.

Add your broccoli to the boiling water and cook for 3-5 minutes depending on how you like it done. Stir your sausages until they brown on both sides. Move your sausages to one side of the pan, then add the butter. Put your garlic in the butter and let it saute for 1 minute.

Mix everything together and then add your broccoli.

Pour in the tomato sauce, red wine, and add red pepper flakes. Mix together, add your spinach with salt and pepper and let it cook down. Simmer this for 5-10 minutes.

Before serving, add fresh parmesan cheese over the top to let it melt.
