I have decded that there should be a thread just full of good healthy training recipes for poeple to have access to. Good balanced meals great for an athlete or just someone who wants to eat healthy. I would start it off but i dont have any (hence the reason for this thread).

Begin!

Good idea. My wife does all the cooking. So I don't know any recipes. She's really good about making sure every meal has a good balance of complex carbs, quality protein, veggies, etc.

Turkey Tacos:
-1-2lbs of organic ground turkey meat (traders joes)
-Salt
-Pepper
-Onion
-Whole Wheat tortillas
-Low Fat cheese(any kind you like)
-Oragnic whole pinto beans
-Garlic cloves
-Salsa of choice

Cook the turkey until there is no more pink showing. Drain the fat and grease out. Then return to stove add chopped onions with salt and pepper. Cook until onions are soft.

Drain most of the water from the can of beans and put into a pot. Add crushed garlic and salt. Then mash beans with a potato masher inside the pot (your making your own refried style beans but 10x better). Add in the cheese after and let it all cook together.

Then add what you want to the tortilla and eat your Turkey Tacos....your Turkey


I got tons of these quick and healthy meals...Im sure everyone makes tacos though.

sounds good, but maybe we should also tell everyone to write how much cal f/c/p in each serving? that sounds great pawlisa, you get all the ingredients at trader joes? and yea i would like to know the f/c/p in your meal

[pawlisa]

All get them all at Trader Joes. I do not know the exact Fat/Caloriesor Carbs/protien but the the only fat is from the cheese and the meat which is very low, and the protien is really high because of the meat , beans, cheese. It can not be more than 250 calories per taco depending on the size which I make huge ones. Your main carbs will be from the tortialls that why I recomend whole wheat. Make sue it is whole wheat and not inriched wheat.

magic idea

Also if your in late at night or dont have much time to cook, Trader Joes carries a low fat Turkey Meatloaf that is just fricking awesome. It is packed with protien and is extremely low in fat. It comes with a little marinara sauce on top and you can eat it as is or cook up a few whole wheat penne' noodles. It takes about 20-30min in the oven.

does anyone have any tuna recipes?

[ChaosSmashKill]

Tuna, diced peppers, tomatoes, and some lettuce. I've heard pineapple and tuna is good but I am skeptical.
