Is there a food with equal Carb/Protein/Fat content?

I'm trying to balance out my diet, but I need to find a food that has a nice balance of Carbs/protein/fat.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!

Make tacos. Adjust ingredients as necessary.

You do realize every meal does not need to be balanced? There's no need to find foods with perfect macro balances - pick what you eat based on what you need for that day.

Really? I thought each meal having that "balance" caused an ideal insulin response...?

Are you diabetic? Or eating before a training session?

If just worried about 'ideal insulin response' in your meal before slogging the next 4 hours in a cubicle, I wouldn't woryr about it.

a meaty thin crust pizza is usually pretty close

No, but the macro (per meal) I'm using is supposed to be followed to manipulate my metabolism to burn fat and put on one pound of muscle a week.

:huh:

Ooookay….

Sounds like what you are describing is similar to the principles of the Zone diet, where you eat certain "blocks" of carbs, protein and monosaturated fat in each meal. I've never seen / heard of a specific FOOD that does this, but a specific meal (like a salad with chicken and vinigarette) would have the kind of balance you're describing.

ETA - Never mind. If you have a whole plan in mind and aren't willing to change anything, good luck finding the food you need.

Who said I wasn't willing to change anything?

From the post it sounded like you had a strict menu in mind and were just looking for the last piece. I inferred that you'd rather just have that last piece than reconfigure what you were planning. I didn't mean to come off as flippant, though I can see where I might have.

Mcdonalds chicken nuggets are pretty close to having equal carb/protein/fat grams

SNAP!

Not sure why people are being a bit rude

But don't worry about balancing EVERY single meal, it's the total days worth in macronutrients and micronutrients that matter, as long as you consume it throughout the day, you'll be sweet

Having a balanced macronutrient ratio per meal won't do anything more special than having an unbalanced one. So this should open up the options you have much more

Keep working buddy

Oh. In that case I wouldn't sweat it, because that goal is a pipe dream. Just work on getting an overall reasonably balanced diet (for the day) and you'll be fine.

Don't worry about certain meals - worry about your whole day!

I try and divide my protein macros evenly, but that's not important.... It's just even " fullness " throughout the day. My coach wants postWO low fat, so my fat is divided kind of evenly amongst my other meals, as again, it helps with satisfaction between meals. Carbs are eaten after training, with my other meals lowish carb....
This is just my approach, and kind of sticking to what my coach suggests. These meals are made up of a variety of food - there is not one food I'd choose to eat at every meal just so they were balanced. That would be boring, and I'd likely be lacking in nutrients!
