Yesterday I bought
Enough green salad, tomatoes, radish, cucumber & cooked chicken breast & feta to make 4 x 800g, 400cal/40g protein salads for lunches at work
Enough stir fry greens, brocolli onions, mushrooms, chillies etc to use with the frozen chicken breast I am currently defrosting for this weeks dinners. 400 cal, 33g protein ea
Bananas & strawberries to put in protein & oat shakes for breakfasts with my peanut butter on toast (bought bread) and some cheap salmon fillet for dinner last night with salad, a bar of chocolate, and 4 cartons of coconut milk since my usual almond milk was out of stock.
This is an average week for me. Sometimes I have omelettes instead, and I switch frozen chicken with frozen fish or raw king prawns, throw in whatever veg is available, season differently every day, nom it down!
And every 6 weeks or so I buy 90 servings of whey protein and a kg of peanut/almond/cashew butter0 -
